Abstract
Radiation-induced bile duct strictures are rare since bile ducts are consid ered to be resistant in radiation injury. We report a case of bile duct ste nosis where evidence is presented that bile duct stricture was the result o f radiation injury and which illustrates the major contribution of magnetic resonance cholangiography in biliary tract disease evaluation.
