[X-ray and ultrasonic diagnosis of noninflammatory benign diseases of the gallbladder]. 1992

T B Legostaeva

The author analyzes the results of x-ray (cholecystography) and ultrasonic examinations carried out in patients with noninflammatory benign diseases of the gallbladder (71 with cholesterosis and 28 with adenomyomatosis). X-ray and ultrasonic symptoms of these conditions are presented and the diagnostic potentialities of both methods in the detection of such diseases assessed. The author considers ultrasonic scanning the method of choice for the diagnosis of any forms of gallbladder cholesterosis, whereas an x-ray examination appears to be informative only in a polypous form of the disease. X-ray contrast examination is preferable for the recognition of gallbladder adenomyomatosis, for it presents a clear-cut pattern characteristic of each form of this condition, whereas ultrasonic symptoms of such involvement are nonspecific.
