title: The varying faces of gall bladder carcinoma: pictorial essay.
abstract: The objective of this review is to highlight the pertinent imaging features and potential pitfalls in the diagnosis and staging of gall bladder carcinoma. This condition is notoriously non-specific on imaging on many occasions, particularly in its early stages; gall bladder carcinoma shows numerous features that overlap with a large number of benign conditions, leading to delayed diagnosis and incurable disease. Radiologists should be familiar with its typical and atypical imaging features.
