It is particularly useful for evaluating abdominal pain to detect the presence of gallstones or to identify other signs compatible with the diagnosis of biliary colic or cholecystitis. Although these signs are well\u2010defined in the literature, the influence of clinical context on ultrasound interpretation has not yet been studied. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of clinical context on emergency medicine residents' interpretation of clinical ultrasound images of normal and pathological gallbladders.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This prospective observational pilot study was conducted from May to September 2023 with emergency medicine residents from three Belgian universities. Participants watched a 45\u2010min tutorial video on clinical gallbladder ultrasound and then completed a multiple\u2010choice questionnaire consisting of 40 dynamic ultrasound loop images, 20 without clinical context and the same 20 images with written descriptions of the clinical context.

The overall sensitivity and specificity without clinical context were 0.74 (95% CI, 0.69\u20130.79) and 0.82 (95% CI, 0.76\u20130.87) respectively, and 0.79 (95% CI, 0.74\u20130.84) and 0.84 (95% CI, 0.79\u20130.90) with clinical context. In the subgroup of acute cholecystitis, sensitivity and specificity without clinical context were 0.56 (95% CI, 0.44\u20130.67) and 0.97 (95% CI, 0.95\u20130.99) respectively, and 0.78 (95% CI, 0.68\u20130.88) and 0.97 (95% CI, 0.95\u20130.99) with clinical context.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The integration of clinical context appears to positively influence the interpretation of gallbladder ultrasound images, thereby enhancing diagnostic performance, especially sensitivity and particularly in the case of acute cholecystitis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/jcu.23979","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,28]],"date-time":"2025-03-28T11:54:11Z","timestamp":1743162851000},"page":"1087-1091","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Influence of Clinical Context on Emergency Medicine Residents' Interpretation of Gallbladder Ultrasound Images: A Pilot Analysis"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"53","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-1418-2190","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bastian","family":"Rodrigues de Castro","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Emergency Medicine, Saint\u2010Luc University Clinics Catholic University of Louvain  Brussels Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Havva\u2010Nur","family":"Bayraktar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Emergency Medicine, Saint\u2010Luc University Clinics Catholic University of Louvain  Brussels Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Joana","family":"Rodrigues de Castro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Emergency Medicine Grand Hospital of Charleroi  Charleroi Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Caroline","family":"Poletti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Emergency Medicine, Saint\u2010Luc University Clinics Catholic University of Louvain  Brussels Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alix","family":"Collard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Statistical Analysis, Saint\u2010Luc University Clinics Catholic University of Louvain  Brussels Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Florence","family":"Dupriez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Emergency Medicine, Saint\u2010Luc University Clinics Catholic University of Louvain  Brussels Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,28]]},"reference":[{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_2_1","DOI":"10.1016\/j.annemergmed.2023.06.005"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_3_1","DOI":"10.3390\/medicina59122179"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_4_1","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajem.2010.01.045"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_5_1","DOI":"10.4240\/wjgs.v15.i11.2564"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_6_1","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacr.2019.02.013"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_7_1","DOI":"10.7759\/cureus.52371"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_8_1","DOI":"10.1097\/MEJ.0000000000000815"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_9_1","DOI":"10.1111\/j.15532712.2011.01012.x"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_10_1","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajem.2020.12.085"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_11_1","DOI":"10.1016\/j.heliyon.2024.e25183"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_12_1","DOI":"10.1186\/s13049\u2010024\u201001182\u20105"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_13_1","DOI":"10.1007\/s11739\u2010023\u201003480\u20109"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_14_1","DOI":"10.1186\/s13017\u2010023\u201000524\u20105"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_15_1","DOI":"10.1111\/acem.13132"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_16_1","DOI":"10.1186\/s13017\u2010020\u201000336\u2010x"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_17_1","DOI":"10.1002\/jhbp.515"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_18_1","DOI":"10.1016\/j.annemergmed.2023.09.005"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_12_19_1","DOI":"10.36834\/cmej.75272"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_20_1","first-page":"3","article-title":"Second Level of Competence for Clinical Ultrasound in Emergency Medicine.
