What are any side effects from an MRCP test?

I have to have this test after a full gallbladder check up and they found I have a slightly enlarged common bile duct.

I have some idea of what that may mean for me but what are the side effects and how does this MRCP test work? What is involved?

I hate tests and hospitals so please answer this so I won't fear it.

    This is an MRI of the liver bladder and upper gut area. Then we use software to reconstruct the images and the final product would resemble a scope / camera was put into the bile duct and hepatic duct to see if there is an obstruction and why. It is safer and more comfortable than the traditional test when we put in a real camera through the mouth to the stomacn then to the bile duct (called ERCP). Don't worry.

    the two activities would have befell one after the different, in spite of the incontrovertible fact that that's very not likely that the small quantity of blood taken for a blood attempt could influence her imaginative and prescient. do not confuse issues that ensue at or close to the comparable time for reason and result. The sunlight rose this morning, and that i chanced on that the milk jug in the refrigerator became almost empty. i don't think of the sunlight drank the milk, however. you do not say why she had the blood examined, and you probably did not say what the transformations have been. the unique rationalization for the attempt would have extra to do with the imaginative and prescient situation than the attempt itself. substantial transformations in imaginative and prescient are in lots of situations reason adequate to be certain a physician. "Curtains" or "floaters" that look all of sudden are reason to be certain a physician NOW.
