Abstract The last few years witnessed tremendous advances in medical technology specially in the field of radiology. Many of these advances are the direct result of spill over from space technology which stimulated great advances in computers. Ultrasound made tremendous advances both in grayscale B-mode and in real-time mode. The gall bladder is an accessible organ for clinical examination, ultrasonographicstudies, conventional radiographic examinations with and without contrast media as well as other imaging modalities. Ultrasonography, in the last decade, gained the upper hand over radiographic techniques in examination of gall bladder and biliary pathology. Oral and intravenous cholangiography are not commonly practised now in most of the X-ray departments. The aim of this study is to compare ultrasonagraphic findings with the that of conventional radiographic in some gall bladder diseases. |
