The infant with possible biliary atresia: evaluation by ultrasound and nuclear medicine

S J Abramson et al. Pediatr Radiol. 1982.

Abstract

Twenty-eight infants with jaundice were evaluated with ultrasound and radionuclide scans. Comparison of these studies with pathologic, surgical and clinical examinations demonstrated good correlation between ultrasonic and radionuclide studies. Ultrasound is an important preliminary study in the workup of such patients. Combined imaging provides the most information in a patient with suspected biliary atresia.
