The key question it aims to answer is: Does the ultrasonography predict laparoscopic cholecystectomy will be difficult?Further analysis will aim to reveal: 1. Are there any specific parameters of ultrasonography that immediately concern the operating surgeon? 2. Should surgeons depend on the ultrasonography reports to counsel the patients differently?
