  • Ages 18 to 99 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Fifteen patients with potentially resectable hilar cholangiocarcinomas, as determined by conventional imaging modalities, will be recruited. In order to minimize false positive uptake of 18F-FDG due to inflammatory changes, patients will be recruited either before biliary stenting, or after biliary stenting if there is no clinical evidence of active cholangitis.

Who may be able to join

  • Hilar cholangiocarcinoma assessed by conventional imaging modalities (triphasic CT scan of the liver) and thought to be potentially resectable.

Who cannot join

  • Biliary drain inserted.
  • Contraindication for MRI.
  • Pregnant or breast-feeding.
  • Uncontrolled diabetes (over 9.7 mmol/L).
