High-resolution computed tomography accurately predicts resectability in hilar cholangiocarcinoma

Introduction Despite the use of radiologic, endoscopic, and laparoscopic staging techniques, the rate of nontherapeutic laparotomies in patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma remains high. This study evaluated the accuracy of preoperative high-resolution computed tomograpy (HRCT) to determine resect...
