| Core Tip |
The results of this economic evaluation of screening for gallstone disease indicated that routine ultrasound sonography screening is worthwhile. We recommend that Chinese population is screened annually for gallstone disease, regardless of whether or not they have been diagnosed with gallstone disease in the past. |
