The exam is performed in the radiology department. The night before the test, patients swallow six tablets (one at a time) that contain the contrast (x-ray dye). The following day at the hospital, the radiologist examines the gallbladder with a fluoro.

Is having surgery on your gull-bladder an illness?

Surgery on the gallbladder is not an illness itself. The surgery is done on this organ BECAUSE of an illness. It may be done, most commonly, because the gallbladder has developed gall stones; but there are other reasons for this type of surgery. Today, this surgery can be done laparoscopically and as a result, the recovery is very short and usually uneventful. If it is done as an "open" procedure, hospitalization and recovery can be much longer.
