Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) uses MR imaging to visualize fluid in the biliary and pancreatic ducts as high signal intensity on T2-weighted sequences; it is the newest modality for biliary and pancreatic duct imaging. MRCP is of proven utility in a variety of biliary and pancreatic diseases, including choledocholithiasis, congenital anatomic variants, chronic pancreatitis, post-cholecystectomy disorders, and neoplastic duct obstruction. MRCP is an evolving technique, but it has reached the stage of development where it is clinically useful and of comparable accuracy to conventional cholangiography. With further progress, it is likely that by the start of the new millennium MRCP will replace diagnostic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography as the modality of choice for imaging the biliary and pancreatic ducts.
磁共振胰胆管造影（MRCP）利用磁共振成像在T2加权序列上把胆管和胰管内的液体显示为高信号强度；它是胆管和胰管成像的最新方法。MRCP在多种胆管和胰腺疾病中已证实具有实用价值，包括胆总管结石、先天性解剖变异、慢性胰腺炎、胆囊切除术后疾病以及肿瘤性胆管梗阻。MRCP是一项不断发展的技术，但已发展到临床有用且准确性与传统胆管造影相当的阶段。随着进一步发展，很可能到新千年开始时，MRCP将取代诊断性内镜逆行胰胆管造影，成为胆管和胰管成像的首选方法。
