Can gallbladder ejection fraction measured by fatty meal cholescitigraphy diagnose chronic cholecystitis?
Introduction: Despite presence of a body of evidence in support of high accuracy of cholecystokinin cholescintigraphy (CCK-CS) , for diagnosis of chronic cholecystitis(CC) , some authors have claimed that gallbladder ejection fraction (GBEF) has poor predictive diagnostic values. The purpose of this study was to determine if there is any difference in GBEF between...
متن کاملDifferential gallbladder contractility in fundal adenomyomatosis: demonstration by cholecystokinin cholescintigraphy.
The cholecystokinin cholescintigraphic findings of fundal adenomyomatosis in a 29-yr-old male with severe post-prandial pain are presented. Planar cholescintigraphy demonstrated a trilobed gallbladder contour. Following the administration of 0.02 micrograms/kg of cholecystokinin at maximal gallbladder filling, fundal dyskinesia was observed. Regional gallbladder ejection fractions were: whole g...
متن کاملClinical Relationship between Steatocholecystitis and Gallbladder Contractility Measured by Cholescintigraphy
Objective. Contractility of gallbladder is known to be decreased in fatty gallbladder diseases. However, clinical estimation data about this relationship is still lacking. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between steatocholecystitis and contractility of gallbladder. Methods. Patients with cholecystitis (steatocholecystitis versus nonsteatocholecystitis) who underwent cho...
متن کاملCholecystokinin cholescintigraphy: methodology and normal values using a lactose-free fatty-meal food supplement.
UNLABELLED The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the use of a commercially available lactose-free fatty-meal food supplement, as an alternative to sincalide cholescintigraphy, to develop a standard methodology, and to determine normal gallbladder ejection fractions (GBEFs) for this supplement. METHODS Twenty healthy volunteers all had negative medical histories for hepatobiliary a...
متن کاملUsefulness of fatty meal-stimulated cholescintigraphy in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic acalculous cholecystitis.
OBJECTIVE Fatty meal cholescintigraphy (fatty meal CS) is a potential physiologic alternative for cholecystokinin (CCK) CS in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic acalculous cholecystitis (CAC). However, there are limited data in the literature to support this assumption. Our objective was to determine the usefulness of fatty meal CS in the diagnosis and treatment of CAC. METHODS We retrosp...
