The consistency of a request for liver MRI and MR-cholangiopancreatography in a patient with an occasional US-finding of mural thickening of gallbladder fundus > or = 3 mm in size was assessed. The differential US diagnosis in case of focal mural thickening was analyzed in combination with the other findings to justify the radiologicoclinical reliability of the request. Overall, these findings suggested the diagnostic hypothesis of adenomyomatosis, then confirmed by a second level in-depth examination, namely liver MRI and MR-cholangiopancreatography.
