The diagnosis method of cholelithiasis is

The diagnosis of cholelithiasis usually requires a combination of clinical symptoms, physical examination, and imaging methods, and is confirmed by a doctor after comprehensive judgment.

Cholelithiasis mainly refers to cholesterol stones or pigment stones formed in the gallbladder or bile duct, which may cause abdominal pain, nausea, indigestion and other symptoms. Some people do not feel obvious discomfort and are often discovered accidentally during physical examinations. If the symptoms are severe, emergency treatment may be required.

Common diagnostic methods include ultrasound, CT scans, and magnetic resonance cholangiography (MRCP). Ultrasound is the most commonly used method, which can quickly and non-invasively detect the presence, size, and number of gallstones; CT can rule out other abdominal problems; and MRCP provides a more comprehensive assessment of the bile duct system. At the same time, doctors may use blood tests to understand whether there are complications such as inflammation and jaundice.

If you suspect cholelithiasis, you should go to a regular hospital for examination and diagnosis in time to avoid serious complications caused by neglect. You should pay attention to eating a light diet, developing good living habits, and avoiding excessive cholesterol intake, which will help prevent and manage cholelithiasis.
