This forms part of a discharge report on a patient with primary sclerosing cholangitis:
ERCP: KM-Abbrüche im Gallengangsystem einer PSC, Ballondurchzug bei Mikrolithen.
KM presumably stands for contrast medium/agent but I'm not sure what the correct translation of Abbrüche would be in this context.

It's called filling defects in English, and - as far as I know - Kontrastmittelaussparung[en] is a more common term in German.

interruption of contrast medium
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is usually attempted before percutaneous cholangiography. EUS-guided cholangiography has been attempted as an alternative to percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) facilitating rendezvous procedures with retrograde or antegrade drainage.
Cholangiographic features of intrahepatic strictures include interruption of contrast medium, bile duct separation, tapering, shouldering, mucosal irregularity, a filling defect and/or the absence of opacification of the draining biliary tree segment.

cut-off sign
A vessel “cut-off” sign is seen when the distal artery is not opacified owing to the presence of occlusive disease.

Renal arterial cut-off sign, as the name suggests, is an abrupt termination of the contrast-opacified lumen of the renal artery. It may or may not be associated with contrast extravasation. It is seen in a vascular injury, e.g. segmental or main renal artery thrombosis or occlusion.
