This review focuses mainly on the imaging diagnosis, treatment, and complications of acute cholecystitis which is the most common benign disease of the gallbladder. The American College of Radiology appropriateness criteria for the imaging evaluation of patients with right upper quadrant pain and the Tokyo Guidelines for evaluating patients with acute cholecystitis and acute cholangitis are presented. The recent articles for using US, CT, MR, and HIDA in the evaluation of patients with suspected acute cholecystitis are reviewed in detail. The clinical management and postoperative complications are described. Because gallbladder polyps and adenomyomatosis can mimic gallbladder malignancies and acute cholecystitis, their imaging findings and management are presented. Finally, due the recent literature reporting better results with CT than US in the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis, a suggested approach for imaging patients with right upper quadrant pain and possible acute cholecystitis is presented in an addendum.
