A member asked:
Would an upper gi be able to detect gallbladder issues?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Only if the gall stones are calcified then they would be visible on the UGI, otherwise NO. Ultrasound is the test of choice but should be delayed after an UGI since the barium can obscure the gall bladder
