Hi @doxie2, welcome. I moved your question about the increase in dialation of from 2mm to 7mm to this existing discussion started by catt8722

I did this so you can connect with other members like @kate1951 @hopeful33250 and others.

Doxie, let me see if I'm understanding you correctly. You read your magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) report which stated a dialation of 7 mm. That is a change from 2mm from a previous MRCP. However you doctor said there was no change. You're concerned about the discrepancy. Did I get that right?

May I ask why the MRCP was ordered? What condition are they monitoring?

Hello, test was ordered originally because I had pain
I was sent for an ultrasound and they saw a dilation then I was sent for an MRCP
then anEUS then another MRCP almost a year to the day from the first one .
