Diagnostic Accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography in Patients With Obstructive Jaundice

Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Obstructive Jaundice
Registration Number
NCT06754397
Lead Sponsor
Sohag University
Brief Summary

Evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) compared with Ultrasound and Computed Tomography (CT) in patients with obstructive jaundice taking findings of ERCP/ PTC and histopathology as gold standard.

Detailed Description

MRCP as a diagnostic role to determine the presence and severity of biliary and pancreatic ductal dilatation. It can also detect the length of the stricture as well as the exact cause and location of the obstructing lesion in comparison to other modalities.
