Lithotripsy in gall bladder?
There is a 14mm stone in my mother's gallbladder.
I heard about the lithotripsy shock wave process, is this process can be done on gallbladder stone or is limited for kidney stones only?
my mother doesn't want a surgery, does any other treatment rather than gall bladder surgery is available in delhi?
Find the ultrasound report in the attachment.
