ABSTRACT
Patients with suspected biliary tract disease often pose a diagnostic challenge to the clinician and radiologist. Although advances across all imaging modalities, including ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance, have improved our diagnostic accuracy for biliary disease, many of the imaging findings remain nonspecific. Recognition of key imaging findings combined with knowledge and understanding of the clinical context is essential to piecing together a diagnosis and guiding management for patients with biliary disease. Although there is a wide range of biliary pathology, interventional radiologists most commonly play a role in the management of biliary obstruction and leak.
