AB  - Biliary cancers include gallbladder cancer (GBC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). 
      GBC may appear as a mass replacing the gallbladder, thickened gallbladder wall, 
      or polypoid lesion in the gallbladder. Gallbladder polyps with low risk of GBC 
      (eg, 6- to 10-mm polyps without other risk factors) are screened with sonography. 
      In general, polyps smaller than 5 mm are ignored and those larger than 10 mm 
      require surgical consideration. Screening for CCA is less well-established. On 
      imaging, CCA may be divided into mass-forming, periductal infiltrating, and 
      intraductal types. This review discusses the current state of screening and 
      diagnosis of GBC and CCA.
