Which imaging technique uses endoscopy combined with radiographic images to examine the bile and pancreatic ducts?
Explanation & Rationale
Rationale: A. Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangiography (PTC) involves inserting a needle through the skin into the liver to visualize bile ducts, not using endoscopy. B. Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) uses an endoscope with ultrasound to image structures near the GI tract but does not combine with radiographic imaging of the ducts. C. Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) uses MRI to noninvasively visualize bile and pancreatic ducts, without endoscopy. D. Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) combines endoscopy with radiographic imaging to examine the bile and pancreatic ducts, allowing both diagnosis and therapeutic interventions.
