Why: Was the ultrasound being performed if there is no pain and blood tests normal? Ultrasound findings can be of no clinical help if the findings have no bearing on what the person feels. These findings described can be non-specific and fairly normal if there is no symptoms. Ask your doctor who ordered the testing what these findings mean for you.

Get it out: If you have symptoms that point to the gallbladder as the source then get it out even though no clear evidence of stones. The wall thickening points to a chronic problem. If still in doubt may benefit from a hida scan, if positive you got your answer if negative but symptoms occur during test still get gallbladder out.
