Sensitivity, Specificity, Positive predictive value, Negative predictive value and Diagnostic accuracy of detection of stone in ultrasound were 100%, 98.83%, 93.94%, 100% and 99% respectively. All specimens after operation sent for histopathological examination and found Chronic cholecystitis (74%) is maximum followed by Acutecholecystitis(23%) and Mucocele of gallbladder(3%).
