Welcome to Health care magic.

1.The report suggest cholelithiasis - gall bladder calculi / stones largest measuring 9mm.
2.Gall bladder wall id thickened ( means there is acute process of infection due to stones)
3.The stones / calculi are causing an acoustic shadowing - which is a feature of the GB calculi.
4.There is no polyp or tumour see - mass lesion / malignancy / cancer is not there.
5.The treatment of choice in this condition is operative. As your doctor said follow the orders. Goos luck.

Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
