  2. Bile duct - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bile_duct

    The biliary tree (see below) is the whole network of various sized ducts branching through the liver.. The path is as follows: bile canaliculi → canals of Hering → interlobular bile ducts → intrahepatic bile ducts → left and right hepatic ducts merge to form → common hepatic duct exits liver and joins → cystic duct (from gall bladder) forming → common bile duct → joins with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_bile_duct

    The bile duct [1] [4] (formerly known as the common bile duct [4]) is a part of the biliary tract. [4] It is formed by the union of the common hepatic duct and cystic duct. It ends by uniting with the pancreatic duct to form the hepatopancreatic ampulla. It possesses its sphincter to enable the regulation of bile flow.

  8. Common hepatic duct - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_hepatic_duct

    The common hepatic duct is the first part of the biliary tract. [2] It is formed by the union of the right hepatic duct (which drains bile from the right functional lobe of the liver) and the left hepatic duct (which drains bile from the left functional lobe of the liver). [3] The duct is about 3 cm long. [4]

  9. Interlobular bile ducts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlobular_bile_ducts

    The interlobular bile ducts (or interlobular ductules) carry bile in the liver between the Canals of Hering and the interlobar bile ducts. [1] They are part of the interlobular portal triad and can be easily localized by looking for the much larger portal vein .
