  • Title: Sonographic and cholecystographic diagnosis of cholesterolosis of the gallbladder.
    Author: Päivänsalo M, Myllylä V.
    Journal: Rontgenblatter; 1984 Oct; 37(10):357-8. PubMed ID: 6387869.
    Abstract:
    Cholesterolosis is difficult to detect preoperatively. Ultrasonography can reveal it as polypoid densities usually without shadows. Cholecystography reveals cholesterolosis as contrast medium defects attached to the gallbladder wall. In our material of 27 patients with cholesterolosis (operatively verified cases) ultrasonography was superior to cholecystography in detecting cholesterolosis.
