Table 5 Comparison between ultrasonography- and computed tomography-guided procedures in patients with acute biliary infection n (%)

Procedure	US-guided procedures		CT-guided procedures
	No. of procedures	Successful procedures	No. of procedures	Successful procedures
Pericholecystic abscess drainage	5	2 (40)	7	6 (85.7)
