difficulty diagnosing gallbladder wall thickening USING ULTRASOUND???

My doc says there is an additional exam to have if the ultra sound shows no problem. I do not know the name of it, but somehow they cause the gall bladder to think you have just eaten while they watch the reaction to the gall bladder secreting bile.

You will have to ask your doc about it. I can't have it cause I have gall stones. All that I can remember is it is a test that administer if the the ultrasound does not show any problems

I would love to hear more bout that test. It is reminiscent of the fatty meal that used to be given after certain oral cholecystograms, or OCGs, which utilized X-rays. I suspect that ultrasound has replaced X-rays for gallbladder studies, however.
