Quantitative cholescintigraphy: selection of random dose for CCK-33 and reproducibility of abnormal results.
UNLABELLED Dynamic cholescintigraphy (DCG) is a valid technique for evaluating gallbladder emptying. Cholecystokinin (CCK) as a slow infusion is recommended as a contraction stimulus. The normal ejection fraction (EF) has been shown to be reproducible, although the reproducibility of abnormal results has not been investigated. The aims of the present study were to standardize the CCK administra...
متن کاملPrediction of recurrent choledocholithiasis by quantitative cholescintigraphy in patients after endoscopic sphincterotomy.
BACKGROUND Endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) is widely used for the removal of stones from the bile duct, but stones recur in about one fifth of patients. AIMS To investigate hepatic clearance by quantitative cholescintigraphy (QC) in patients after EST and to discern the relationship between biliary emptying and stone recurrence. METHODS One hundred and forty nine patients who had EST and cl...
متن کاملCholescintigraphy in Dubin-Johnson syndrome.
Hereditary or familial hiperbilirubinemia comprises a group of syndromes (Dubin-Johnson’s, Rotor’s, hepatic storage disease) in which hyperbilirubinemia, predominantly unconjugated or conjugated, occurs as an isolated biochemical abnormality without evidence of either hepatocellular necrosis or cholestasis. We present a patient with Dubin-Johnson syndrome, one of the familial disorders associat...
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...
