All patients were diagnosed by sonography and have been operated at Viet Duc Hospital in 2 years of 1998-1999. The result shown that the sensitivity of sonography in diagnosing common bile duct stones is 95% and in diagnosing lower choledochus stones is 87.8%. Urgent or non-urgent ultrasonic examination have unconsidered influence to the sonographic value in diagnosing common bile duct stones with the sensitivity 92.6% and 97.6% respectively. The situation of abdominal surgery influences the sonographic value in diagnosing common bile ducts stones: The sensitivity is 91.8% to patients with abdominal surgery and is 91.8% to patients with abdominal surgery and is 98.3% to patients without abdominal surgery.
