What Are the Advantages of MRCP for Pediatric Patients?
MRCP offers several advantages, particularly for pediatric patients:
Non-invasive: No need for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). No radiation exposure: Unlike CT scans, MRCP uses magnetic fields and radio waves. Detailed imaging: Provides high-resolution images of the biliary and pancreatic ducts. Safe: Generally well-tolerated with minimal risks.
