Forgive me if this is a repeat, but I think the last reply disappeared.

I had an MRCP last Friday (the 4th or 5th) and they've done IV

contrast all of the times. It took 4 sticks to do the IV this time. Bah.

I thought IV contrast was the norm. Maybe not.

Hi ;

I think that MRCP's can be done either with or without contrast. But

with a contrast agent, this can often lead to better image quality and

reveals finer details of the biliary tree.

Best regards,

Curious if anyone can help me out with a question. I had an annual MRI

to check out my insides. This time though they injected me with a dye,

is there any reason why it was done this time and not the last when i

was first diagnosed? Any insight is appreciated. Cheers,
