A member asked:
Does mrcp look at whole abdomen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See answer: Mrcp usually is focused on the liver, pancreas and the gallbladder/biliary tract. Sometimes it may be combined with more comprehensive upper (or lower) abdominal MRI scanning but this may need to be specifically ordered and would be dependent on the clinical concern.
