The Study is designed to compare the effectiveness of Near Infrared Fluorescence Cholangiography (NIFC) to standard white light imaging (WLI) in visualizing and identifying the main biliary and hepatic structures (Cystic Duct, Right Hepatic Duct, Common Hepatic Duct, Common Bile Duct, Cystic-CBD junction, Cystic-Gallbladder junction and any Accessory Ducts) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The aim is to demonstrate that NIFC performs better than standard white light (WLI) alone in visualizing and identifying extra-hepatobiliary structures (Cystic Duct, Right Hepatic Duct, Common Hepatic Duct, Common Bile Duct, Cystic-CBD junction, Cystic-Gallbladder junction, and any Accessory Ducts) before and after dissection during Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (LC).

Detection Rate of Common Bile Duct Before and After Dissection Using Near Infra-red Light
Timeframe: Immediately before dissection (baseline) and immediately after dissection during the same surgical procedure.
