Hepatic echo-angiostructure: echo-anatomical study of the intraparenchymatous canal With a suitable technique (real time, grey scale) hepatic ultrasonography is able to display intraglandular ductal elements: portal veinous network, supra-hepatic veinous network, and, if enlarged intrahepatic biliary tree. A careful echoanatomic study is necessary to identify the enlarged biliary network in case of obstructive jaundice; such a study is also necessary not to confuse normal ductal structures, insufficiently displayed, with pathological reflections - a rather frequent hazard with conventionnal techniques.
