The lesion proved to be sludge or thick bile If you see something in the gallbladder and you don't know if it is sludge or a polyp first tun the patient. If the lesion doesn't move or change form use the color doppler. If there is flow and the lesion is larger than 1 cm, always send the patient to the surgeon. In those cases the surgeon will order a CT scan to check for metastases and invasive growth because of the possibility of malignancy.
If the lesion is smaller at least do a control examination to check for growth
