I have uploaded a few more images. I think what I'm seeing is my gallbladder. I didn't not have any oral contrast, just iv contrast and this wasn't for anything abdomen related, but a cardiac MRI. I'm curious if it is my gallbladder and whether or not you see a gallstone.

Calculus will appear as dark area in MRI.Calculus appears bright in CT scan.

So,it is normal and there is nothing to be worried about.It is not calculus.
