CT features of intraductal intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

AJR Am J Roentgenol. 2000 Sep;175(3):721-5. doi: 10.2214/ajr.175.3.1750721.

Abstract

Objective: The objective of this report was to describe the CT features of intraductal intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

Conclusion: Segmental or lobar dilatation of the intrahepatic bile ducts associated with or without intraductal polypoid mass, amorphous structures, or both with slight hyperattenuation are common CT findings of intraductal intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. The size of the intraductal mass determines the visibility on CT.
