gallstones
What is the medical term meaning examination of the bile duct structure using a needle to pass directly into an intrahepatic bile duct to inject a contrast medium?
Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography
Trace the flow of bile from the liver to the duodenum listing all of the structure that come into contact with the bile on its journey.?
The hepatocytes in the liver produce bile, which then flows through the left and right hepatic ducts to the common hepatic duct. Once the common hepatic duct is filled, the bile flows into the cystic duct and then into the gallbladder where it is stored. The gallbladder allows the bile to flow back into the cystic duct and then the common bile duct which empties into the duodenum.
Where is bile temporarily stored between meals?
It used to be secreted by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. If you lose your gallbladder, then the bile is not stored anywhere anymore, but dripped directly from the liver to the bile duct, to the small intestine.
