To determine whether a bile duct tumor is benign or malignant, it is necessary to visit a qualified medical institution and undergo imaging examinations such as contrast-enhanced MRI and contrast-enhanced CT, along with hematological tests and tissue biopsy. By performing these relevant examinations, the nature of the bile duct tumor—benign or malignant—can be clearly identified. Once the tumor's characteristics are confirmed, prompt treatment is essential.
