Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance cholangiography (CEMRC) utilizing gadoxetic acid disodium, a gadolinium-based MRI contrast agent, where approximately 50% is excreted by hepatocytes, proves advantageous in evaluating the biliary tree. Research has indicated that CEMRC not only detects post-traumatic bile leaks but also aids in characterizing their morphology. However, the duration for image acquisition can vary significantly, ranging from 20 to 180 minutes. In this presentation, the speaker will discuss the experience at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital regarding optimal CEMRC acquisition times, the feasibility of bile leak detection, and the characterization and significance of various types of bile leaks.
