The aim за this study was to estimate capabilities of magnetic-resonance imaging in diagnostics of patients with obstructive jaundice syndrome. Magnetic-resonance imaging was made for 112 patients with biliary hypertension. Malignancy was found in 31 (27.6%) cases случае, mostly in men and mostly cancer of the head of the pancreas. Noncancerous genesis in 74 (66.1%) cases was mostly represented by cholelithiasis and most often in women.
