  • Title: Complementary use of Doppler sonography and delayed right lateral scintigraphy for the diagnosis of choledochal cysts.
    Author: Parvey HR, Eisenberg RL, Wolfson J, Wood M.
    Journal: South Med J; 1990 Aug; 83(8):970-2. PubMed ID: 2200143.
    Abstract:
    Both sonography and hepatobiliary scintigraphy can help to demonstrate a choledochal cyst. Our case further demonstrates that Doppler sonography and right lateral or oblique scintigraphic views can be used to differentiate more completely this entity from other infantile cholestatic syndromes. These additional maneuvers may be particularly advantageous in the affected infant under a year old in whom a confusing clinical picture may obscure the correct diagnosis.
