RESULTS:
Follow up study done as compared with previous study taken 5/7/10 shows normal- sized
liver with hyperechogenic parenchyma. No focal masses seen. The intrahepatic ducts are not
dilated.
The common bile duct measures 0.5 cm in its widest visualized diameter.
The gallbladder measures 7.4 x 3.8 x 3.7 cm (L x W x AP) with thickened wall measuring 0.9
cm. Multiple high intensity echoes with posterior sonic shadowing are still seen intraluminally,
the largest measuring 1.3 cm.
The pancreatic head is normal in size and parenchymal echopattern. The pancreatic body and
tail are obscured. The pancreatic duct is not dilated.
The spleen is normal in size and parenchymal echoppattern. No focal masses seen.
There is no disparity in the size of the kidneys. The right kidney measures 9.7 x 4.8 x 4.2 cm
(L x W x AP) with cortical thickness of 0.9 cm, while the left kidney measures 10.2 x 4.1 x 3.9
cm (L x W x AP) with cortical thickness of 1.0 cm. The central echo complexes are intact. The
cortico- medullary demarcations are well defined. No lithiasis seen.
The urinary bladder is well distended. Its wall is not thickened. Intraluminal echoes noted.
The uterus is atrophic measuring 3.4 x 2.9 x 2.6 cm (L x W x AP) with an endometrial stripe
thickness of 0.4 cm (previously 4.0 x 2.4 x 1.0 cm). No focal masses noted. No adnexal masses
