To determine whether the given statement is a complete sentence, a fragment, or a run-on sentence, we can consider its structure and whether it conveys a complete thought.
In this case, the statement "The patient's ultrasound showed dilated gallbladder with no stones present, this was consistent with cholecystitis" is a fragment. It lacks a subject-verb combination that forms a complete thought or a main clause.
To make it a complete sentence, we can revise it by adding the necessary subject and verb: "The patient's ultrasound showed a dilated gallbladder with no stones present, which was consistent with cholecystitis."
