== Classification ==
OR


===Size===
[Disease name] may be classified according to [classification method] into [number] subtypes/groups: [group1], [group2], [group3], and [group4].
A gallstone's size varies and may be as small as a sand grain or as large as a golf ball. The gallbladder may develop a single, often large, stone or many smaller ones. May occur in any part of the biliary system


===Content===
OR
Gallstones have different appearance, depending of their contents. On the basis of their contents, gallstones can be subdivided into the two following types:


====Cholesterol stones====
[Disease name] may be classified into [large number > 6] subtypes based on [classification method 1], [classification method 2], and [classification method 3].
[[Cholesterol]] stones are usually green, but are sometimes white or yellow in color and account for about 80 percent of gallstones. They are made primarily of cholesterol.
[Disease name] may be classified into several subtypes based on [classification method 1], [classification method 2], and [classification method 3].


====Pigment stones====
OR
Pigment stones are small, dark stones made of [[bilirubin]] and [[calcium]] [[salt]]s that are found in bile. They account for the other 20 percent of gallstones. Risk factors for pigment stones include [[cirrhosis]], [[biliary tract]] infections, and hereditary blood cell disorders, such as [[sickle cell]] anemia and [[spherocytosis]]. Stones of mixed origin also occur.
 
Based on the duration of symptoms, [disease name] may be classified as either acute or chronic.

According to the [staging system + reference], there are [number] stages of [malignancy name] based on the [finding1], [finding2], and [finding3]. Each stage is assigned a [letter/number1] and a [letter/number2] that designate the [feature1] and [feature2].

Overview

There is no established system for the classification of [disease name].

OR

[Disease name] may be classified according to [classification method] into [number] subtypes/groups: [group1], [group2], [group3], and [group4].

OR

[Disease name] may be classified into [large number > 6] subtypes based on [classification method 1], [classification method 2], and [classification method 3]. [Disease name] may be classified into several subtypes based on [classification method 1], [classification method 2], and [classification method 3].

OR

Based on the duration of symptoms, [disease name] may be classified as either acute or chronic.

OR

If the staging system involves specific and characteristic findings and features: According to the [staging system + reference], there are [number] stages of [malignancy name] based on the [finding1], [finding2], and [finding3]. Each stage is assigned a [letter/number1] and a [letter/number2] that designate the [feature1] and [feature2].
