The clinical utility of spiral CT cholangiography.

Spiral CT cholangiography has received little attention, yet in a single breath-hold spiral and with limited manipulation at the workstation it can yield high resolution images of the biliary tract. In addition it can clearly demonstrate periampullary detail and contribute some dynamic information regarding biliary excretion. The clinical utility of this technique is illustrated and discussed.
