What process can be primarily affected by gallbladder disease?

Gallbladder disease primarily affects the process of bile storage and release. The gallbladder's main function is to store bile produced by the liver, which is crucial for the digestion and absorption of fats. When the gallbladder is diseased, its ability to concentrate and release bile can be impaired, leading to digestive issues, particularly after fatty meals. This disruption can also result in complications like gallstones, inflammation, or infection.


Why can't your Gallbladder not be seen on an ultrasound?

The gallbladder may not be visible on an ultrasound for several reasons, such as being completely empty, which can occur if the patient has not fasted before the procedure. Additionally, factors like obesity, excessive bowel gas, or anatomical variations can obscure the gallbladder's view. In some cases, the gallbladder may be inflamed or diseased, leading to difficulties in visualization. Lastly, technical factors related to the ultrasound equipment or the operator's experience can also contribute to the gallbladder not being seen.
