Abstract
The occurrence of Cholelithiasis is the commonest biliary disease to be reported in India. Our research is aimed to assess the potential association between the gallbladder stone and the blood analysis through a cohort study. An attempt is also made to illustrate the importance of image enhancement technique by grey level mapping in digital image processing for the better analysis of biliary system and its related complications.
