Abstract

Gallbladder stone is a kind of common disease in the world. In recent years, with the development of population aging and the change of people’s living habits, the incidence of the disease is increasing year by year. The study found that stone composition was different, the patient’s treatment and prevention programs also were different. So it is very important to know exactly the chemical type of gallstone before treatment. Imaging examination is the main method to identify the composition of gallstones in vivo. The research progress of different imaging methods in the study of gallstone composition were reviewed in this article.

Key words
