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 کاملEffect of oral versus gastric delivery on gastric emptying of corn oil emulsions.
Several studies have shown that fluids delivered to the stomach tend to empty more rapidly than when ingested by mouth. To better characterize the "delivery route effect" for corn oil, rats received intragastric or intraoral infusions matched for concentration and for the rate and duration of stimulus delivery. We showed, first, that more than twice as much oil emptied by the end of 12-min intr...
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 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 کاملMechanism‐Based Modeling of Gastric Emptying Rate and Gallbladder Emptying in Response to Caloric Intake
Bile acids released postprandially modify the rate and extent of absorption of lipophilic compounds. The present study aimed to predict gastric emptying (GE) rate and gallbladder emptying (GBE) patterns in response to caloric intake. A mechanism-based model for GE, cholecystokinin plasma concentrations, and GBE was developed on data from 33 patients with type 2 diabetes and 33 matched nondiabet...
