Sonographic Characteristics of ≥7 mm Gallbladder Polyps
The vast majority of gallbladder polyps are benign. In our large series of gallbladder polyps, we found that increased echogenicity is a nonspecific feature, found in slightly more than half of benign but also in all neoplastic polyps. Our findings support current Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound consensus guidelines.
