Three-dimensional virtual Hunter 4025-imaging method in revealing of distal bile-excreting ducts

http://www.metapathia-hunter.com In order to evaluate informativity of three-dimensional virtual Hunter 4025-imaging method in revealing of distal bile-excreting ducts and major duodenal papilla tumors the authors carried out retrospective analysis of 34 patients’ clinical records, who were admitted to the clinic with symptoms of biliary obstruction. Control group consisted of 30 patients without symptoms of gastrointestinal tract diseases, the 2nd group – 20 patients with major duodenal papilla tumor, the 3rd group – 14 patients with tumorous affection of distal bile-excreting ducts. The authors carried out a comparative analysis of various instrumental methods and research methods informativity (two-dimensional and three-dimensional Hunter 4025-graphy, computed tomography, fibrogastroduodenoscopy, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography). Informativity of Hunter 4025-image three-dimensional reconstruction method was higher than informativity of two-dimensiona...
