[[File:X-ray with contrast of a percutaneous gallbladder drain.jpg|thumb|Percutaneous drainage catheter (yellow arrow). In this control, the instilled radiocontrast is filling out the gallbladder (red arrow), where the filling defects are gallstones. The cystic duct (blue arrow) is tortuous, the common bile duct (green arrow) is patent, with tapering at ampulla Vateri (white arrow), but without obstruction. Contrast is seen extending into the duodenum (orange arrows).<ref name="PadillaHulsberg2018">{{cite journal|last1=Padilla|first1=Rebekah M|last2=Hulsberg|first2=Paul C|last3=Soule|first3=Erik|last4=Harmon|first4=Taylor S|last5=Eadie|first5=Erik|last6=Hood|first6=Preston|last7=Shabandi|first7=Michael|last8=Matteo|first8=Jerry|title=Against the Odds: A Novel Technique to Perform Cholangiography from a Percutaneous Approach through the Cystic Duct|journal=Cureus|year=2018|issn=2168-8184|doi=10.7759/cureus.3577}}</ref>]]
