Three hundred and ninety eight patients with different diseases of the liver and biliary tract were examined on the basis of the complex use of latest technologies of magnetic resonance imaging (dynamic contrast MRI, MR-arterio- and venoportography, MR-cholangiopancreatography), which yield all necessary information during one study to design surgical treatment.

Different MRI procedures have been ascertained to be highly diagnostically effective in evaluating hepatic and biliary diseases.
