AnswersandExplanations
1.AnswerA. The firstimageshows amarkedly thickenedandstriatedgallbladder wall. Thesecond
image shows a part of the liver parenchyma that appears normal. The gallbladder wall is considered thickenedwhenitisover3mm.Diffusegallbladderwallthickeningoccursinthesettingofbothbiliary
andnonbiliaryprocesses.Biliaryetiologiesincludecholecystitis,gallbladdercancer,adenomyomatosis, primarysclerosingcholangitis,andAIDScholangitis.Nonbiliarycausesduetoedemaincludehepatitis, ascites,cirrhosis,portalhypertension,hypoproteinemia,andlymphaticobstruction.Theinitialevaluation of gallbladder wall thickening should include a careful assessment for gallstones and a sonographic Murphysigntoexcludeacutecholecystitis.
Thispatient overdosedon Tylenol.Gallbladderwall thickeningcanbetheonlysonographicsignof acutehepatitis.Gallbladderwallthickeningishypothesizedtobeduetoaninflammatoryreaction,suchas hyperemia, in the serosal and muscular layers adjacent to the liver in response to necrosis and inflammationofthelivertissues.Hepatomegalyandperiportaledema (withrelativeechogenicityofthe biliarytriads—“starrysky”appearance)canalsobeseen,especiallyinviralhepatitis.
Thehepaticechotexturewouldbeexpectedtobecoarsenedinapatientwithcirrhosis(answerchoice B), and it is normal in this case. No gallbladder distension or gallstones are shown to support the diagnosisofacutecholecystitis (answer choiceC). Acalculouscholecystitis (answer choiceD) usually occursincriticallyillICUpatients,andthegallbladderwouldbeexpectedtobedistendedinthatcaseas well.

2a.AnswerA.Focalthickeningofthewallofthegallbladderfundusisnotedtocontainbotharounded
cysticfocusandanechogenicreflectorwithcomet-tailartifact.Thepresenceofanechogenicfocuswith comet-tailartifactishighlyspecificforadenomyomatosisandistheresultofcholesterolcrystalswithin Rokitansky-Aschoff sinuses. Adenomyomatosis is relatively common and is a hyperplastic cholesterolosisofthegallbladderwall,abenigncondition.Therefore,nofurtherwork-upisneeded.
2b.AnswerB.Althoughsomedatasuggestapossibleassociationofadenomyomatosisandgallbladder
carcinoma,thereisnoconclusiveevidenceyetfortheincreasedriskforgallbladdercarcinoma.Thereis aclearassociationofadenomyomatosis (especially segmentaltype)withgallstones,possibly relatedto fundalstasis.

3a. AnswerC. Thedifferentialdiagnosis for cystic lesionswithin the porta hepatis includeshepatic
cyst, enteric duplication cysts, pancreatic pseudocyst, biliary cysts, and hepatic artery aneurysm. The imagesshowafusiformcysticstructurecontainingechogenicnonmobiletissuewithpapillaryprojections. The structure communicates directly with the hepatic ducts (left side of image 1), indicating a choledochocele. Type I choledochal cyst is the most common type of choledochal cyst,accounting for 80%to90%,andisconfinedtotheextrahepaticbileduct.TypeIcholedochocelesareassociatedwithan increasedriskofbothcholangiocarcinomaandgallbladdercancer.Thepapillaryconfigurationandstatic natureoftheintraluminallesionareparticularly concerning fora cholangiocarcinoma.ERCP wouldbe appropriateforfurtherevaluationandwouldpermittissuesamplingfordiagnosis.
3b.AnswerD. Althoughcholangiocarcinoma isthe mostominous complication,itisthesecondmost
commoncomplicationbehindcalculusformationwithinthebiliary tree,choledochocele,gallbladder,or pancreaticduct.Otherpotentialcomplicationsinclude pancreatitis,rupturein infantsand neonates,and, rarely,cholangitis,liverabscesses,portalhypertension,andascites.
3c.AnswerC.Alargemajority(~90%)ofcarcinomasrelatedtocholedochalcystsoccurwithintypesI
(fusiform extrahepatic)andIV(multiple intra-andextrahepatic).Hence,the generalrecommendation is for those cysts to be completely removed. Patients with type II cysts can often be treated with cyst excision, and those with type III cysts can be treated with sphincterotomy or endoscopic resection. Choledochalcystsareapremalignantstate,withcanceroccurringmorefrequentlyandearlierthaninthe general population. The risk increases with age. Observed cancer types in these patients include adenocarcinoma (73% to 84%), anaplastic carcinoma (10%), undifferentiated cancer (5% to 7%), squamouscellcarcinoma(5%),andothercarcinoma(1.5%).Thesitesofmalignancyaretheextrahepatic bileduct(50%to62%),usuallywithinthecholedochalcyst;gallbladder(38%to46%);intrahepaticbile ducts (2.5%); and liver and pancreas (0.7% each). Most of the cancers are associated with type I choledochalcysts(68%)followedbytypeIVcholedochalcysts(21%)and<10%forothertypes.

4a.AnswerB.TheechogenicmasswithinthegallbladderfunduswithpowerDopplerflowindicatesa
solidmass.Theechogenicwallisinterruptedanteriorlyatthesiteofthemass.Althoughthedifferential diagnosisforapolypoidlesioncontainingDopplerflowincludesbothgallbladdercarcinomaandbenign polyp,the largesizeandreplacementofthe gallbladderlumen are features concerningfor malignancy. Walldiscontinuityisanespeciallyominoussignoftransmuraltumorspread,indicatingatleastanAJCC stageIIItumor(notacandidateforcurativeresection)withapoorprognosis.Althoughring-downartifact is a feature of adenomyomatosis, the absence of ring-down artifact alone does not exclude adenomyomatosis.
4b.AnswerD.Gallstonesarepresentin70%to90%ofpatientswithgallbladdercancer.Theriskfor
malignancyishigherinpatientswithlargergallstonesandlongerdurationofcholelithiasis.
4c.AnswerA.40%to65%ofpatientswithgallbladdercarcinomaatinitialdetectionarefoundtohave
a mass nearly filling or replacing the gallbladder lumen. Gallbladder carcinoma presents as focal or diffuse wall thickening in 20% to 30% of cases. In 15% to 25% of cases, gallbladder carcinoma is initiallydetectedasapolypoidlesion.

6.AnswerC. Qualitycontrol(QC)istheprocess bywhich adesired levelofquality is verifiedand

7a.AnswerC.Cholecystectomyisrecommendedforgallbladderpolypsthatmeasure>1cmbecauseof
riskofmalignancy.Follow-upimagingcanbeperformedforgallbladderpolypsthatmeasure>6mmbut <10mm.ThereisnoroleforMRIorhepatobiliarycholescintigraphyinfurthercharacterizationofthese lesions.

8.AnswerB. The imageshowsanexampleofsidelobe artifactfromechogenicbowelbeing located
adjacenttotheanechoicgallbladderlumen.Inadditiontothemainultrasoundbeam,anultrasoundprobe emits off-center ultrasound pulses. When a strong reflector is encountered by one of these off-center pulses,itcanbereflectedbacktotheultrasoundprobeandinterpretedasbeinglocatedinthepathofthe main ultrasound beam. This artifact is generally only a problem when imaging anechoic, fluid-filled
structures like thebladder orgallbladder,astheartifactfrom the side lobe is generallyonly detectable whenimagingananechoicstructure.However,itstilloccurswhenimagingsolidorgans,buttheartifactis usuallyimperceptible.
Theimage(onthefollowingpage)showsthegallbladderfromaslightlydifferentanglethanfromthe image in the question. This image more convincingly shows the echogenic structure “within” the gallbladderlumentobe artifactual.An additionalclue thattheechogenicstructure inthegallbladder is notagallstonebutratherartifactualisthelackofcleanshadowingposteriortotheechogenicfocusthat would be expected from a stone. In this case, there is dirty shadowing posterior to the gallbladder, suggestive ofbowel gas. The use ofharmonic imagingcan effectivelyminimize side lobe artifacts,so turning off harmonics would accentuate this artifact. Increasing transducer power will increase the amplitudesofboththeprimarybeamandsidelobes,sotheartifactwillincrease.Increasingthedepthof imagingwillnotdecreasethisartifact.

9.AnswerC.ImageAshowsasmallamountofperihepaticascites.ImageBshowsmarkedgallbladder
wallthickening,andImageCshowsreversalofflowinthemainportalvein.Basedontheclinicalhistory andthe providedimages,the best answer is C, sinusoidal obstruction syndrome(SOS), also known as venoocclusivedisease(VOD).
SOS/VODisthoughttoresultdirectlyfromchemotherapyorradiation-induceddestructionofhepatic microvasculature during cytoreductive HSCT (hematopoietic stem cell transplant) conditioning and represents the mostcommoncause ofliver disease during the first 20 days after stem cell transplant, affecting10%to60%ofpatients.Clinically,thepatientpresentswithweightgain,painfulhepatomegaly, jaundice,andascites,usuallywithin3 weeksfollowinghematopoieticstemcell transplantation.It may also happen following some forms of chemotherapy and liver transplantation. Imaging findings mimic those of graft versus host disease (GVHD). Ultrasound findings include hepatosplenomegaly, ascites, gallbladder/periportaledema,hepatofugalflowintheportalveinonDoppler,andelevatedRI(>0.75).
Chemotherapy-inducedsteatosisisnotthebestchoicebecausetheliverisnotmoreechogenicthanthe adjacentkidney, asone wouldexpectwith steatosis. Also,theportal triads anddiaphragm are visible indicatingnormalacousticpenetration.Additionally,thisdoesnotexplainthefindingsofgallbladderwall thickeningandascites.Acutecholecystitisisnotthebestchoicebecausethegallbladderisnotdistended. Italsodoesnotexplainthefindingsofascitesandhepatofugalflowintheportalvein.Cirrhosisisnotthe bestchoicebecauseitdoesnotexplainthemarkedgallbladderwallthickening,norisitthebestfitforthe clinicalscenario.

11.AnswerC.Thethreeimagesshowthegallbladderwithmultiplesmallpolyps,theso-called“balls
on the wall” sign seen in cholesterolosis. Cholesterolosis is a benign condition in which cholesterol estersaredepositedwithinthelaminapropriaofthegallbladder.Cholesterolpolypsarebyfarthemost common type of gallbladder polyp. They are enlarged papillary fronds filled with lipid-laden macrophagesandarenottrueneoplasms.Theyareadherenttothewallbyaslenderstalk,whichisrarely seen.Theyare usually5mm orless insizeandrarely growlargerthan10mm.Theyare distinguished fromstonesbytheirlackofshadowingandnonmobility.Theirnonmobilitydistinguishesthemfromsludge balls.Iftherearemultiplesmallpolyps,theyarealmostcertainlycholesterolpolypsandcanbeignored. Therefore,answerchoiceCisthecorrectanswer.
Thereis no associationofcholesterolpolypswithgallbladdercancer;thereforeanswer choiceAis notcorrect.Thecauseisunknown,butthereisnoassociationwithserumlipidlevels;therefore,answer choiceBisincorrect.Cholesterolosishasthesameriskfactorsascholelithiasis,butthetwoconditions
rarelycoexist.Therefore,answerchoiceDisanincorrectstatement.
