Visualization of the gall-bladder is a matter of thorough, carefultechnic and a certain amount of luck. The patient must suspendrespiration completely and the exposure and position of the central GALL-BLADDER 187 ray may be just right for the particular patient. It is an exaggera-tion to say that every gall-bladder which can be visualized is patho-logical. However, it is undoubtedly true that a large proportionof pathological gall-bladders can be visualized by careful shadow of the gall-bladder is rounded and sharply margined;
