Abstract: | In this pictorial essay, we review the 3‐dimensional sonographic appearance of the normal gallbladder and biliary tree, as well as the appearance of congenital and acquired biliary tract disorders. Using examples, we demonstrate the advantage of 3‐dimensional scanning compared with 2‐dimensional sonography and, even in certain cases, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography. |
