Comparison of Laparoscopic Ultrasound to Transabdominal Ultrasound for the Detection of Gallbladder Pathology in the Bariatric Surgical Population.
In Brief
An observational study for Cholelithiasis and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 253 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The objective of this study is to prospectively compare laparoscopic ultrasound to transabdominal ultrasound for the detection of gallbladder pathology in obese patients presenting for laparoscopic gastric bypass. We hypothesize that laparoscopic ultrasound will be more sensitive and specific for cholelithiasis than transabdominal ultrasound in morbidly obese patients.
