Ultrasound for the Detection of Gallbladder Malignancy in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
Ultrasound is more sensitive for the detection of gallbladder polyps than MRI in people with PSC. The best cut-off to differentiate between benign and malignant polyps was 8 mm. Ultrasound (gallbladder) and MRI (bile ducts) may thus be complementary methods for hepatobiliary malignancy surveillance in people with PSC.
