摘　　要：Endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS) is considered a superior investigation when compared to conventional ultrasonography for imaging gall bladder(GB) lesions as it can provide high-resolution images of small lesions with higher ultrasound frequencies. Examination of GB is frequently the primary indication of EUS imaging. Imaging during EUS may not remain restricted to one station and multi-station imaging may provide useful information. This review describes the techniques of imaging of GB by linear EUS from three different stations. The basic difference of imaging between the three stations is that effective imaging from station 1 is done above the neck of GB, from station 2 at the level of the neck of GB and from station 3 below the level of the neck of GB.Endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS) is considered a superior investigation when compared to conventional ultrasonography for imaging gall bladder(GB) lesions as it can provide high-resolution images of small lesions with higher ultrasound frequencies.
