Abstract
To determine the incidence of common-bile-duct lesions and their relation to liver disease in cystic fibrosis, we performed hepatobiliary scanning in 50 of 61 patients with cystic fibrosis who had hepatomegaly, abnormal liver function, or both and in 31 of 92 patients with cystic fibrosis who did not have hepatomegaly or abnormal liver function.This publication has 31 references indexed in Scilit:
