Abstract
Cholecystosonography was performed on 338 obstetric patients, and the gallbladder was successfully visualized in 93% of them. Gallbladder volume increased with duration of pregnancy. Three and one-half percent of the patients had obvious cholelithiasis, and a total of 4.2% had abnormalities. These findings suggest that cholecystosonography should become part of the routine obstetric ultrasound examination.Entities:
