Research summary
This will be an observational study designed to assess different aspects of the repeatability and reproducibility of quantitative MRCP. Participants will be recruited with a range biliary tree structures, from various etiologies as well as healthy volunteers.
Once on site participants will undergo 6 MR-sequences in 3 different MRI scanners - spending approximately 10 minutes in each scanner for a total scanning time of approximately 60 minutes. The sequences used are standardised MRCP sequences. The images the different scans will then be post-processed with 'MRCP+' software and images and values compared with each other to determine whether they are reproduced reliably in different scans and on different scanners.
