Talk:Common bile duct

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

hi, my grandpapa is suffering from advanced jaundice and his radiology report says "dllateed CBD upto 16.7mm and hypoecholic mass 35.1 x 29.5 mm is seen in obstructing diatal part of CBD".

pls tell me what does this mean.. we are from remort area and doctors are not giving proper advice here. pls reply at agrawal_rs@hotmail.com

The choice of image for this article is unfortunate, as the label for the CBD points directly at the junction of the cystic duct, common hepatic duct, and common bile duct. This is not helpful to one who does not know which is which. Osmodiar 23:21, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Change the label of the picture.

In fact the above user is correct, the arrow in the picture points at the junction between the common hepatic duct and the common bile duct. Maybe a more accurate picture can be found by someone.
