GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -A tube that carries bile from the liver and gallbladder, through the pancreas, and into the small intestine. The common bile duct starts where the ducts from the liver and gallbladder join and ends at the small intestine. It is part of the biliary system.

Detailed explanation-2: -Intrahepatic bile ducts are a network of small tubes that carry bile inside the liver. The smallest ducts, called ductules, come together to form the right and left hepatic ducts, which lead out of the liver. The two ducts join outside the liver and form the common hepatic duct.

Detailed explanation-3: -A tube that carries bile from the gall bladder. It joins the common hepatic duct to form the common bile duct. It is part of the biliary duct system.

Detailed explanation-4: -About half the bile secreted between meals flows directly through the common bile duct into the small intestine. The rest of the bile is diverted through the cystic duct into the gallbladder to be stored.

Detailed explanation-5: -A tube that carries bile from the liver. The common hepatic duct starts where the right and left hepatic ducts join outside the liver and ends where a duct from the gallbladder joins it to form the common bile duct.
