What's the average size, volume, or surface area of the Gall Bladder?
I’m trying to find out the average size, volume, or surface area of the gall bladder but remain incapable of finding any information.
I’d really like a hand on this.

It’s approx. 7-10 cm long.
Most I’ve seen have been oval in shape and about 4 inches long and a diameter of ~1 1/2 inches. Of course, this depends on the size of the person (height, not width as much). It also depends on when you are talking about seeing the gallbladder… after a fatty meal, it is likely a bit smaller because it has emptied a bit of its contents.
