Assessment of Gastric Accommodation in Patients with Functional Dyspepsia by 99mTc-Pertechtenate Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography Imaging: Practical but not Widely Accepted
OBJECTIVE Impaired gastric accommodation is one of the main symptoms in patients with functional dyspepsia. The aim of the present study was to assess gastric accommodation in patients with functional dyspepsia using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging. METHODS Twenty-four patients with functional dyspepsia and 50 healthy volunteers as control group were enrolled in thi...
متن کاملSimultaneous assessment of gastric accommodation and emptying: studies with liquid and solid meals.
UNLABELLED The aim of this study was to develop a scintigraphic test to measure gastric emptying and accommodation simultaneously. METHODS Gastric emptying and accommodation were measured in healthy subjects. To determine gastric accommodation, the stomach was imaged with SPECT 20 min after intravenous administration of 185 MBq (5 mCi) (99m)Tc-pertechnetate. After ingestion of 11 MBq (300 mic...
متن کاملFundic accommodation assessed by SPECT scanning: comparison with the gastric barostat.
BACKGROUND Recently, single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scanning was described as a non-invasive technique to assess fundic accommodation. However, in contrast with the barostat, no intragastric distending force is applied during SPECT scanning. We hypothesised that in the absence of a barostat balloon, SPECT scanning largely detects the volume effect of the ingested meal and is...
متن کاملDevelopment of a test to measure gastric accommodation in humans.
Postprandial symptoms of bloating, distension, early satiety, and nausea are associated with impaired postprandial gastric accommodation, which is detectable by means of an intragastric, barostatically controlled balloon in the proximal stomach and by ultrasound in the distal stomach. Our aim was to develop a noninvasive method to measure the entire gastric accommodation reflex. In 10 healthy v...

متن کاملNoninvasive measurement of gastric accommodation by means of pertechnetate SPECT: limiting radiation dose without losing image quality.
UNLABELLED The gastric accommodation response to a meal is impaired in conditions such as functional dyspepsia. At present, a barostat study is the gold standard to assess fundic relaxation in response to a meal. However, this method is invasive and possibly induces artifacts as a result of positive intraluminal balloon pressure. A noninvasive scintigraphic test has been developed to measure ga...
