Abstract: Gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in the biliary system, which is difficult to diagnose in the early stage due to its high degree of malignancy, invasiveness and lack of specific clinical manifestations. In this paper, we summarize ultrasound, CT and other imaging manifestations in the early stage of GBC, and describe the role of protein markers and microRNA marker as biomarkers in the diagnosis of early GBC. The enhanced understanding of the relevant features might help to improve the accuracy of the diagnosis of early gallbladder carcinoma.

Key words: gallbladder cancer, early diagnosis, imageology, circulating markers
