US GB more sensitive: Current high-resolution, real-time US can identify gallstones as small as 2 mm, with a sensitivity greater than 95%. When cells in the pancreas are injured, increased amounts of lipase enter the blood, occur in Pancreatitis, Pancreatic tumour rare, and from blocked PD with gallstone. Contracted GB is seen, when GB empties post meals.or Diseased GB from inflammation or gallstones
