This is correct. Murphy's sign is a good way to differentiate between RUQ differentials as it is generally only positive in Cholecystitis. Murphy's sign is positive when you ask the patient to breathe out, place your hand on their right costal margin and they feel pain when the gallbladder (which is being pushed down by inspiration) comes into contact with the examiners' hand.
