To evaluate the speci 디 city of the pattern and morphology of the dilated biliary tree on CT scans (CT characterization) three independent radiologists who were unfamiliar with the cases were asked to classify 62 CT scans in patients with obstructive jaundice. The case population consisted of 14 cases with recurrent pyogenic cholangitis, 18 cases with clonorchiasis and 30 cases with carcinoma along the extrahepatic ducts. which were intermixed randomly. Classification was made only on the basis ofct characterization: those scans showing primary lesions, i.t., stone, aggregate of flukes. or tumor mass were excluded or masked. All the scans of every case showing the extrahepatic bile duct were masked. Radiologists correctly classified 54 of the 62 cases (87%): ten of the 14 patients with recurrent pyogenic cholangitis(71 %). 17 of the 18 patients with clonorchiasis(94%) and 27 of the 30 patients with carcinoma along the extrahepatic bile ducts(90%). We believe that CT characterization ofbile duct dilatation is useful in the differential diagnosis of obstructive jaundice. especially when a primary pathologic lesion is not depicted in CT scans. Index Words: Bile ducts, CT Bile ducts, calculi Bile ducts. neoplasms Bile ducts. clonorchiasis Cholangitis INTRODUCTION Sonography and CT are the two most noninvasive diagnostic armamentarium in the differential diagnosis of obstructive jaundice. Differentiation of obstructive jaundice from non-obstructive jaundice is possible over 98% of the time by recognizing the dilated bile ducts. However, accuracy of identification of the causes of bile duct obstruction is 71-88% by sonography(l, 2) and 63-70% by CT(2. 3). The primary lesion is often elusive. and ultrasonogram. CT scan, or cholangiogram just reveals biliary dilatation: in these cases, however, diagnosis could be suggested on the basis of pattern of dilatation, that is distribution and shape ofthe dilated biliary tree. and further appropriate procedure could be tailored. 이논문은 년 2 월 10 일접수하여 1992 년 4 월 28 일에채택되었음.

MATERIALS AND METHODS The study population consisted of 14 patients with RPC, 18 patients with clonorchiasis, and 30 patients with carcinoma along the bile ducts (ten patients with cholangiocarcinoma of the extrahepatic ducts, 13 patients with pancreatic head carcinoma, and seven patients with carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater). These were consecutive cases during the period from April1988 to March 1991 except following cases; (1) those cases showing direct evidence of a disease on CT, namely stones in RPC, aggregate of f1ukes in clonorchiasis or mass in carcinoma(when the direct evidence was only in the extrahepatic ducts, those cases were included, because every CT slice of all the cases showing extrahepatic ducts was masked): (2) those cases having two kinds of diseases, such as clonorchiasis and cholangiocarcinoma, or clonorchiasis and RPC; (3) those cases that underwent interventional procedure before CT scanning since a catheter in the bile ducts implies malignant biliary obstruction in our hospital: (4) those cases in which the diagnosis was not confirmed. There was no case of sclerosing cholangitis or Caroli disease during the same period. There were four cases of choledochal cyst but these were excluded since the extrahepatic dilatation was evident and quite characteristic for the disease. Among the 14 patients with RPC, the diagnosis was based on the surgical findings and cultures in ten patients, and clinical as well as endoscopic retrograde cholangiographic findings in the other four patients. Clonorchiasis was diagnosed on the basis of demonstration of ova of Clonorchis sinensis in stool in 14 patients, and skin test (veronalbuffered saline extract of adult worms of Clonorchis sinensis, 1; 10,000 dilution) in four patients. In cancer, 19 cases were diagnosed surgically and/or pathologically, and the remaining 11 cases were diagnosed on the basis of clinical and cholangiographic findings Quick scanner (GE Medical Systems,Milwaukee) in 48 patients and other commercially available third generation scanners in the remaining 14 patients. Some CT scans were obtained both before and after contrast enhancement but we reviewed only the postcontrast scans. Postcontrast scanning was performed after bolus injection of 150 ml of 60% iothalamate meglumine (iodine content, 28%), (Conray; Mallinckrodt Institute Canada, Quebec, Canada). Contiguous scans with l-cm collimation (n=51), or 5-mm collimation with 2-mm interslice gap (n = 11) were obtained covering the entire liver and pancreas. The CT scans were mixed randomly. Every CT slice of all the cases showing extrahepatic bile ducts were omitted or masked so that the radiologists should think there might be a lesion in the extrahepatic bile duct or pancreas in all the cases included in this study. Three radiologists (two gastrointestinal radiologists [YTK. DHL) and one chest radiologist [YY) who were unfami1iar with the cases and blinded to the clinical information were asked to review the CT scans at the same session but answer independently. Before the test cases were reviewed, there was a brief introduction session explaining the proposed criteria using typical cases of each disease. Radiologists were not informed about the number of cases included for each disease. Each radiologist was asked to diagnose one ou t of three diseases. The radiologist were asked to diagnose RPC when the larger intrahepatic bile ducts (central one-halffrom the p 아 ta hepatis) are predominantly dilated with no dilatation of the smaller bile ducts ( central" dilatation, Fig. 1, 2) in association with abrupt tapering and straightening; clonorchiasis when the small or medium sized intrahepatic bile ducts (peripheral one-halffrom the porta hepatis, namely tertiary, quaternary and more peripheral division) are predominantly dilated ( peripheral'. dilatation, Fig. 3); carcinoma when the entire biliary tree is dilated proportionally (more dilatation in central and less in peripheral) with some

Only using the CT pattern of bile duct dilatation, the three observers correctly classified 42 of the 62 cases (68%).

In the remaining five cases, all observers agreed but classification was incor- a b Fig. 3. Peripheral dilatation in a 52-year-old man with clonorchiasis.

Regarding individua1 disease. observers correctly classified ten ofthe 14 patients with RPC(71 %). 17 ofthe 18 patients with clonorchiasis (94%). 와ld 27 ofthe 30 patients with carcinoma along the extrahepatic ducts(90%). Observers misclassified four cases of RPC: three cases were misinterpreted as carcinomas (Fig. 6) and one case as clonorchiasis. Three carcinomas were misclassified as RPC in two cases (Fig. 7) 없ld clonorchiasis in one case. One case of clonorchiasis was misclassified as carcinoma(fig. 8). DISCUSSION Pattern of biliary dilatation in each bile duct disease is different from the others; for example. in Caroli disease. intrahepatic cystic biliary dilatation is quite characteristic; in sclerosing cholangitis. biliary tree is tortuous. focally dilated. naπow and discontinuous; in choledocha1 cyst. extrahepatic ducts are cystically dilated.

In RPC. the extrahepatic bile ducts and the larger ( central") intrahepatic ducts. such as the

Three observers classified as central dilatation and diagnosed as recurrent pyogenic cholangitis. right and left hepatic ducts and its first tributaries are dilated while small tributaries are not dilated (4-7) (Fig. 1. 2). The dilated 1arger intrahepatic ducts taper abruptly and straight as one goes to the periphery of the liver, resulting in an arrowhead' configuration toward the periphery of the liver (7). This pattem ofbiliary dilatation is due probab1y to 10ss of e1asticity of the 1arger bile ducts by recurrent infection. and inf1ammationlfibrosis of the small intrahepatic bile ducts. In clonorchiasis, the small ( peripheral") or meduim-sized intrahepatic bile ducts are dilated diffuse1y, while the 1arge intrahepatic ducts and extrahepatic bile ducts are norma1 or slightly dilated(8-12) (Fig. 3). Dilatation of the smaller bile ducts is cased by the f1uke itself as the f1ukes reside in the smaller intrahepatic ducts and causes mechanical obstruction, adenomatous hyperp1asia ofthe bile ducts, mucus hyperproduction and periducta1 fibrosis (8-10). Extrahepatic duct involvement is generally uncommon. In cancer of the bile duct such as cho1angiocarcinoma, carcinoma of the pancreas and ampulla ofvater, the entire bile ducts proximal to the mass are dilated proportional1y" regard1ess of the level of obstruction (Fig. 4, 5). though the severity of dilatation depends upon the degree and duration of obstruction. In moderate to severe dilatation, biliary tree becomes tortuous. Fig. 8 illustrates the characteristic pattem of bile duct dilatation in patients with RPC, clonorchiasis and carcinoma. CT is very sensitive in the delineation of the dilated biliary tree(ct characterization) and determination of the level of obstruction. However, delineation of the causes of biliary obstruction is sometimes difficult or impossible. Some stones in the bile ducts are not visualized as attenuation of stones is similar to bile or adjacent liver paren

Note tortuosity of the dilated intrahepatic bile ducts. in general. but sometimes when a mass is sm외 1, its delineation is difficult(2.3). In our 62 cases. primary pathology was depicted on CT in 30 cases (48%) and equivoc외 in five cases (8%): in 27 cases (44%). the cause of obstruction was not depicted. The low rate of depiction of primary cause of obstruction is because of relatively large proportion of clonorchiasis. CT is particularly insensitive in depicting f1ukes: aggregates of f1ukes were demonstrated in only two of the 18 cases (11 %) of clonorchiasis. In RPC, stone was demonstrated in nine ofthe 14 cases (64%) and equivocal in one case. In the 30 carcinomas. mass was demonstrated in 19 cases (63%) and equivocal in four cases. Clinical significance of CT characterization of bile duct dilatation is its usefulness in patients whose CT discloses only biliary dilatation with no evident primary pathology. For example. the primary pathology was demonstrated in only 11 % in clonorchiasis but correct diagnosis could be made in 94% on the basis ofct characterization. In four ofthe 14 cases ofrpc (29%). the stone was not demonstrated. In seven of the 30 carcinomas(23%) along the bile ducts. the cancer mass was not demonstrated in CT: the masses were too small or incorporated with the adjacent organ or the pancreas and only abrupt obstruction of the bile duct was demonstrated. In these CT scans, the cause of bile duct obstruction could be suggested only on the basis of CT cholangiogram and further appropriate procedure could be tailored. When RPC is suggested on the basis of CT characterization. endoscopic retrograde cholangiography is indicated as a next step for diagnosis as well as a road map" for a surgeon. When clonorchiasis is suggested, stool test for ova of Clonorchis sinensis is indicated: endoscopic retrograde cholangiography or percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography is too invasive for these patients. When carcinoma is suggested. endoscopic retrograde cholangiography or per
7 cutaneous transhepatic cholangiography and/or percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage is considered as a next procedure. The study is somewhat artificial and not in a real clinical setting in that only three common diseases were included and interpreters were to consider only three diseases and to pick the most likely ofthe three. In clinical setting. by contract a radiologist is faced with considering many other diagnostic possibilities including sclerosing cholangitis. Caroli disease and choledochal cyst. In our country. however. other biliary tract diseases other than the three common diseases. such as sclerosing cholangitis are rare. Caroli disease and choledochal cyst are very easy to diagnose as the biliary dilatation is quite characteristic. Another problem. which are tried to avoid. is that these three diseases are interrelated. that is two or three diseases may be present simultaneously. or one disease may cause another diseases as clonorchiasis may be the cases ofrecurrent pyogenic cholangitis or carcinoma of the bile ducts (11-13). The other point is in patients with RPC with localised dilatation of the intrahepatic bile ducts. such as the lateral segment of the left hepatic lobe or posterior segment of the right hepatic lobe. caused by stricture: in these patients. the intrahepatic bile ducts are dilated sometimes up to the periphery.
