Cholangiography-- Radiographic examination of the bile ducts after injection with a special dye.
Abnormal results for a percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography are enlargement of bile ducts.
Normal results of a percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography are dye evenly distributed throughout the bile ducts.
transhepatic cholangiography
No . False. Not True.
Patient aftercare for percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography involve monitoring vital signs and watching for complications. Bed rest for 6 hours.
NO. (A Cholangiography is the imaging of the bile duct)
The conditions of obesity, gas, and failure to fast can affect test results.
The medical term for this procedure is "percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography" (PTC). It involves using a needle to pass through the liver to inject contrast medium into the bile ducts to visualize their structure.
The medical term for the process of recording the bile vessels is "cholangiography." This procedure involves imaging the bile ducts, often using X-rays, to diagnose conditions such as blockages, gallstones, or tumors. Cholangiography can be performed using various techniques, including endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or percutaneous approaches.

The risks of this test are septicemia (blood poisoning); bile peritonitis; dye occasionally leaks from the liver into the abdomen which may cause bleeding or infection.
