  • Title: Scintigraphic and radiographic findings in Caroli's disease.
    Author: Moreno AJ, Parker AL, Spicer MJ, Brown TJ.
    Journal: Am J Gastroenterol; 1984 Apr; 79(4):299-303. PubMed ID: 6538747.
    Abstract:
    In recent years, noninvasive evaluation of Caroli's disease has been demonstrated by computed tomography, ultrasonography, and nuclear scintigraphy. Confirmation of Caroli's disease requires invasive procedures such as percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography or endoscopic retrograde cholangiography. All of the techniques give valuable information making it easier to diagnose Caroli's disease and to determine its extent. In addition, associated abnormalities in organs outside of the biliary system may be revealed. Two cases are presented to illustrate the radiographic and scintigraphic findings of Caroli's disease.
