GB wall lesions

A free gallery of high-resolution, ultrasound, color doppler and 3D images

Ultrasound images of lesions of gall bladder wall:

1) Segmental adenomyomatosis of gall bladder:

This patient underwent routine sonography of the abdomen. Ultrasound images of the gall bladder reveal thickening and constriction of the mid segment dividing the lumen into a fundic area and another part towards the neck. There is also evidence of small calculi in the fundic segment of the gall bladder. These ultrasound images suggest segmental adenomyomatosis of the gall bladder. Adenomyomatosis of the gall bladder may be segmental, diffuse or fundal. Images taken using Toshiba Powervision ultrasound and color doppler machine, courtesy of Dr. Ravi Kadasne, Al Ein, UAE.

2) Tiny polyp of the gall bladder wall:

This ultrasound image shows a small polyp of the inferior wall of the gall bladder. Note the small base of the polyp, suggesting its benign nature. Such polyps are usually the result of chronic inflammation. Ultrasound image courtesy of Dr. Ravi Kadasne, UAE. He used a Philips IU22 machine to obtain this image.
