How to Diagnose Gallstones?

The diagnosis of gallstones is made with the help of specific tests and procedures. The two most common tests include: Abdominal ultrasound: Abdominal ultrasonography is the most routine test done to look for gallstones or gallbladder stones. A transducer is moved back and forth to probe the stomach area. The probe helps generate signals converted into images of the gallstones. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS): An endoscope, a little flexible tube, is inserted into the digestive system through the mouth. Sound waves are generated by a transducer that is within the tube. These sound waves are converted into images. Other tests: Gallstones or gallbladder stones are also detected using other imaging tests such as Magnetic Resonance Cholangio Pancreatography (MRCP), Oral Cholecystography, Computerized Tomography (CT) and Hepatobiliary Iminodiacetic Acid (HIDA) scan. Gallstones detected using Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio Pancreatography (ERCP) can also be removed during the assessment. Blood tests: They are used to check for infections, pancreatitis, jaundice, and other consequences of gallstones.

What Is the Treatment for Gallstones?

Gallbladder surgery: Your doctor could suggest a cholecystectomy because the gallstones could return. Life after gallbladder removal is unaffected, the process is not life-threatening. The liver will discharge the bile directly into the small intestine rather than retaining it in the gallbladder. Gallstone medications: Some medications dissolve gallstones to help remove them. The dissolution might take months or years to happen. The gallstone may recur once the treatment is stopped.

When Will The Doctor Suggest Surgery?

The doctor will recommend gallstone surgery when the gallbladder is severely inflamed or infected. Two commonly performed surgeries are laparoscopic surgery, also known as Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy, and open surgery, also known as Open Cholecystectomy.
