We have previously shown that a 5β-cholanoic acid-based contrast agent is efficiently internalized in hepatocytes and is able to bind to a liver bile acid binding protein (BABP) in vitro. Here we ...

In a follow-up analysis to the pivotal TOPAZ-1 study, which established the combination therapy of durvalumab (an ...

Various tests are used to diagnose bile duct cancer, including liver function tests, tumor markers, ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, ...

Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic, progressive disease of the bile duct system. The bile duct system carries bile from the liver and gallbladder into the first part of the small ...

Adding bile acids as farnesoid X receptor agonists to the culture medium supported the growth and development of unique stem ...

In this paper, pathological sections of rat bile duct carcinoma were used as experimental samples to identify and analyze liver tumor by microscopic hyperspectral imaging (MHSI) technique.

This paper proposes an innovative multi-layer millimeter-wave broadband common-mode filter (CMF). The equivalent circuit of defected ground structure (DGS) expressed by transmission line model is ...

Much has been learned about the mechanism of BDI, for which misperception of normal anatomy is a most common reason, especially misidentification of the common bile duct as the cystic duct 7 - 9.

If your arm drawings feel just a little “off,” this video will show you why. From misplaced biceps to awkward elbow joints, we break down the most common anatomy mistakes artists make when ...

They often manifest as a concentric thickening of the bile duct, coupled with infiltration of the periductal tissues. By contrast, nodular lesions project directly into the lumen of the bile duct.

These enzymes travel down the pancreatic duct into the bile duct in an inactive form. When they enter the duodenum, they are activated. The exocrine tissue also secretes a bicarbonate to neutralize ...

Innovative Magnetic Technique Revives Indian Patient with Complex Bile Duct Injury A novel magnetic compression anastomosis method saved a 45-year-old Indian man from bile duct complications after ...
