Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 7
Abstract
Background: The type of study was observational prospective in nature. Adults of both sexes who were referred for abdominal USG with a clinical diagnosis of gall bladder pathology were included in the study. A total of 50 patients with clinical evidence of gall bladder diseases were included in the study. Conclusion: The use of ultrasound is rapid taking only few minutes, easy to perform and interpret, cost effective with good repeatability and reliability, is noninvasive and non-ionizing, the features which help the ultrasound to score over other imaging modalities in emergency situations such as those that arise with gallstones. The overall good sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of ultrasound diagnosis in the Gallbladder diseases in our study has lent support once again to the proposition that Ultrasound is the diagnostic technique of choice in the evaluation of the Gallbladder diseases. Study Design: Hospital based, prospective observational study.
