Coloured magnetic resonance image (MRI) scan of the bile and pancreatic ducts. This imaging technique is known as magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) when used to image this area of the body. The bile ducts carry bile from the liver, where it is produced, to the gallbladder, where it is stored, and the small intestine where it aids digestion of fats (lipids). The pancreatic ducts carry pancreatic enzymes to the small intestine, where they break down food.
