A member asked:
Ultrasound report: cbd is dilated with a stone. does dilated mean the same as stricture of the cbd or do they have two completely different meanings?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, dilated means distended or swollen as bile cannot pass the obstacle, in this case stone, some other times being caused by stricture.
