Patients who have gallbladder disease may commonly present with acute right upper quadrant pain, nausea or vomiting, mid-epigastric pain, and/or jaundice. Etiologies include inflammation with or without infection, noninflammatory disorders, and benign or malignant neoplasms of the gallbladder or bile ducts. Ultrasound (US) is now accepted as the initial imaging modality of choice for the work-up of suspected gallbladder disease. The study was carried out at maharajahs institute of medical sciences, Nellimarla, Department of radio-diagnosis. 75 patients were included, by ultrasound Phillips affinity 70 HD unit with a curvilinear transducer of 1 to 5 MHz the age of the patients is between (26 - 89) years, 38 Patients (50.60%) were males and 37 patients (49.40%) were females. Range of age group of accumulation for gallstone presence was (26 - 58) years and most common in males than females. Incidence of gallstone are 38 (51%) patients, other pathologies of gallbladder were found to be acute cholecystitis 13%, polyp in 15%, tumors seen in 7% patients. Ultrasonography is a single imaging modality sufficient for evaluation of patient with suspected gallbladder pathologies which can provide information about the presence of gallstone and more over about site and cause of biliary tract obstruction. Ultrasound is highly sensitive and specific means for diagnosis of the gallbladder stones. Sensitivity and specificity of ultrasound in evaluation of gallstones high (97.7%, 95. 6%) respectively.
