How to Interpret Gastric Emptying Scintigraphy
Gastric emptying scintigraphy has long been the standard method for measuring gastric motility. Various methodologies for this study have been used including meal composition, patient positioning, instrumentation, frequency of data acquisition, study length and quantitative method. For accurate quantification, it is not important which method is in use, except that the methodology should always...
متن کاملA case of gastric duplication evaluated by gastric emptying scintigraphy.
Gastric duplications are relatively rare, and communication with the gastric lumen is extremely rare. A 67-year-old man was referred to our hospital because of recurrence of epigastric pain and fullness. An upper gastrointestinal contrast study revealed a double compartment stomach, with gastric duplication starting at the esophagogastric junction outside the greater curvature. Computed tomogra...
متن کاملSmartPill Capsule for Assessment of Gastric Emptying – Comparison with Simultaneous Gastric Emptying Scintigraphy
BODY: Gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) using a radiolabeled solid-phase meal is currently considered the gold standard to detect gastroparesis. It is, however, performed in a variable manner at different institutions. A method to standardize gastric emptying using a low fat (EggBeaters) meal with imaging at 0, 1, 2 and 4 hours postprandially has been suggested (Tougas et al, Am J Gastro 2000...
متن کاملValidation of gastric-emptying scintigraphy of solids and liquids in mice using dedicated animal pinhole scintigraphy.
UNLABELLED Gastric emptying in small laboratory animals is a useful parameter to assess gastrointestinal motility for physiologic, pharmacologic, or other research purposes. In mice, phenol red recovery is considered the gold standard for determination of gastric emptying. However, this method requires sacrifice of the animal and yields data of gastric emptying at only 1 time point. Gastric-emp...
متن کاملValidation of Ultrasonography for Assessment of Gastric Emptying Time in Healthy Cats by Radionuclide Scintigraphy
BACKGROUND The prevalence of gastric emptying (GE) disorders in cats is unknown due to lack of clinically applicable diagnostic tests. OBJECTIVES The principal aim of this study was to assess correlation between scintigraphic and ultrasonographic measurements of GE time (GET) in healthy cats. Additionally, variability of ultrasonographic GET, and correlation between scintigraphy and ultrasono...
