Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the most common malignancy in patients with primary
sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and carries a high rate of mortality. Although the pathogenesis …

The diagnosis of malignant biliary strictures remains problematic, especially in the perihilar
region and in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). Conventional cytology obtained during …

Background Few papers deal with pathologic characteristics and outcome of the 3 different

Background: Accurate clinical staging of patients with cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) has a
significant impact on treatment decisions. In this study, we aimed to compare the diagnostic …

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is an aggressive and lethal malignancy with limited therapeutic
options. Despite recent advances in diagnostic imaging for CCA, the early diagnosis of CCA …

The purpose of radiological imaging in patients with suspected or known
cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is tumour detection, lesion characterization and assessment of …
