It is also possible that attenuated radiation from yttrium microspheres in liver metastases adjacent to the gallbladder also contribute to this complication however, this is thought less likely because it implies that radiation induced gastritis and colitis would occur more often [25]. When radiation induced cholecystitis occurs, a characteristic thick walled appearance of the gall bladder may be observed on cross-sectional images [13J. [Pg.142]
