Surface marking of Gallbladder

Gall bladder is situated at the junction of 9th costal cartilage and outer border of right rectus abdominis muscle
Grey-Turner’s Method
Draw a line from left anterior superior iliac spine through umbilicus. At the junction of this and the costal margin, is the gallbladder, provided the shape of abdomen is normal. Gallbladder is better seen than felt when enlarged.
