Step 1 / 1 · TG18 diagnosis
Does it meet TG18 diagnosis (A systemic inflammation + B cholestasis + C imaging)?
💡 A systemic inflammation (fever/chills, abnormal inflammatory markers); B cholestasis (jaundice T-bil ≥2 mg/dL, abnormal liver tests); C imaging (biliary dilation, cause such as stone/stricture/stent). Suspected = A + (B or C); definite = A + B + C. Charcot's triad (fever, jaundice, RUQ pain) has low sensitivity but high specificity.
