Relating to or produced by cholangiography, the medical imaging of bile ducts.
From 'cholang-' (bile duct) + '-graphic' (relating to recording/imaging). Combines Greek 'chole' (bile) + 'angi' (vessel) + '-graphic' (writing/imaging).
Before X-rays and ultrasound, doctors couldn't see inside your bile ducts—adding the suffix '-graphic' (writing) to describe imaging shows how we named technologies by comparing them to the writing and drawing we already knew.
