The international group of experts, including Professor John Bridgewater (UCL Cancer Institute), is calling for rapid improvements in diagnosis, treatment and research for cholangiocarcinoma, also known as bile duct cancer. Bile duct cancer is a rare but aggressive disease that starts in the small tubes that carry digestive fluid from your liver to intestines. These tumors usually develop and progress silently, meaning most people are diagnosed at a late stage when treatment options are limited.
