In this case the CE-T2FLAIR was successfully used in the diagnosis of recurrent optic neuritis, which was superior to the traditional CE-T1WI. The author suggest this is a useful diagnostic sequence for recurrence of optic neuritis.

Choledochocele is a congenital abnormality of the biliary system, which characterized by a cystic dilatation of intramural segment of the distal common bile duct. Choledochocele manifests as cystic lesions in the duodenal lumen and resembles duodenal duplication cysts in imaging. We reported a patient with choledochocele. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography showed a thin-walled sac in the duodenal cavity and a fine tubular structure connecting with the end of the common bile duct. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography is a noninvasive and convenient technique in the diagnosis of choledochocele.

Key words: choledochocele, gastrointestinal imaging, multi-detector computed tomography, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography
