The biliary ducts are a network of tubes that transport bile, a digestive fluid produced by the liver. Bile helps in the digestion of fats and is stored in the gallbladder until needed. The ducts connect the liver to the gallbladder and the small intestine, ensuring that bile flows efficiently to aid in digestion. These ducts include the hepatic ducts, which carry bile from the liver, and the cystic duct, which connects the gallbladder to the common bile duct. The common bile duct then delivers bile to the duodenum, the first part of the small intestine, facilitating the digestive process.
