1. Acute cholecystitis is one of the most common reasons for hospital
admission with acute abdominal pain.

2. Approximately 90–95% of acute cholecystitis is related to gallstones,
with 5–10% of cases due to acalculous disease.

3. Ultrasound is more useful than CT and MRI for the initial evaluation of
acute biliary disease.

4. CT is arguably the best technique for imaging of complicated gallbladder
disease, particularly for direct imaging of emphysematous cholecystitis,
gallstone ileus, and confirmation of suspected gallbladder perforation.
