- W2058476100 abstract "Acute cholecystitis is a common condition which may be difficult to diagnose with confidence on clinical grounds alone. A large number of techniques are now available for imaging the gall bladder but, in practice, ultrasonography and cholescintigraphy are of greatest value. The former is cheap, readily available and features such as the presence of gall stones, gall bladder wall inflammation and a positive sonographic Murphy sign strongly suggest the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis. In addition to its diagnostic uses, ultrasonographically guided percutaneous cholecystostomy provides an alternative and sometimes life-saving form of treatment in those patients who are unfit for surgery. Cholescintigraphy is a highly accurate, non-invasive method for assessing patency of the cystic duct but is not always available in the emergency situation and takes longer to perform than an ultrasound examination. Acute cholecystitis, however, has many manifestations and may be calculous or acalculous, be associated with a patent or obstructed cystic duct, and may be complicated or uncomplicated. Imagining modalities other than those mentioned above may be useful in certain circumstances and this chapter aims to present the advantages and disadvantages of each technique in order to provide guidance for the clinician caring for a patient with suspected acute cholecystitis." @default.
