Acute cholecystitis is a common clinical inflammatory lesion of the gallbladder. With the aggravation of inflammation, ischemic, necrosis, and even acute gangrenous cholecystitis occur in the gallbladder. At the same time, a variety of complications appear, seriously affecting the prognosis of patients. It is recommended that ultrasound can be utilized as the first choice for the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis, due to its fastness, convenience, non-radiation, and low cost. Here, we summarize the latest progress that can predict acute gangrenous cholecystitis in ultrasound, thus assisting us in identifying patients with high risk of gangrene in early stage, and treating these patients in time.
