Cholangiocarcinoma is a relatively uncommon malignant neoplasm with poor prognosis. The distinction between extrahepatic and intrahepatic subtypes is important as epidemiological features, biologic and pathologic characteristics, and clinical course are different for both entities. This review study focuses on the role imaging plays in the diagnosis, classification, staging, and post-treatment assessment of cholangiocarcinoma.
胆管癌是一种预后较差的相对少见的恶性肿瘤。肝外型和肝内型的区分很重要,因为这两种类型在流行病学特征、生物学和病理学特征以及临床过程方面均有所不同。本综述研究重点介绍了影像学在胆管癌的诊断、分类、分期和治疗后评估中的作用。
