| Choledocholithiasis, the presence of a gallstone in the common bile duct, is a troublesome component of biliary tract disease. |
| Endoscopic ultrasound and CT ruled out choledocholithiasis, but revealed a bulky pancreas indicating inflammation. |
| Patients with acute gallstone pancreatitis who are strongly suspected to have common duct stones require rapid assessment for choledocholithiasis. |
| Thus MR has been reserved for cases in which choledocholithiasis is the main consideration or in pregnant patients where radiation exposure is of greatest concern. |
| The clinical diagnosis of choledocholithiasis associated with acute cholecystitis and a renal tumour were established. |
| Her past medical history included an ERCP for choledocholithiasis and hypertension. |
