Chief Qi performed the ultrasound while asking about the history and evolution of the disease.
It was obvious that the patient had a history of cholecystitis, and the position of pain that the old man had described matched. The ultrasound probe pressed on the Murphy's sign. There was tenderness, but there was no rebound tenderness or muscle guarding.

Fifteen minutes...
Thirty minutes...
The ultrasound took half an hour.
