A member asked:

Can a ct scan with contrast show if i have gallbladder sludge? the report said there was no significant abnormality with my gallbladder/biliary tree?

Chances are no. Sludge is a vague term. I would go with thev rep[ort if you have no symptoms.

Gallbladder sludge would not be visible on most CT scans. It can often be seen by ultrasound of the gallbladder, however. If you are having symptoms related to possible gallbladder disease, speak with your physician or a gastroenterologist about what the next step should be. Good luck.
