Abstract:

Hepatobiliary scintigraphy is a sensitive method for intra & extera hepatic bile leak diagnosis. Bile lead may be seen after hepatobiliary surgery, trauma, inflammatory disease or malignant neoplasms. Although sonography and CT scanning are useful for diagnosis of peritoneal or perihepatic fluid, they cannot prove bile ascites. Hepatobiliary scintigraphy with Tc-99m-IDA agents is a physiologic and noninvasive test to confirm bile leak.

Precise Localization of a Bile Leak with Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy.

Hepatobiliary scintigraphy (HBS) is a widely used modality to diagnose biliary injury. In patients with a history of trauma or surgery, the common presentations of bile leaks on HBS are a progressive collection of radiotracer outside the biliary system. However, the precise localization of a bile leak is usually not conveyed by noninvasive techniques including CT or ultrasound or even HBS. This...

Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy in Patients with Bile Leaks

Hepatobilillry scintigraphy has been recognized as u useful tool in detecting the presence and sites of bile leaks. The clinical settings in which bile leaks are likely to occur, as weU as some of the scintigraphic patterns seen in patients with bile leaks, are reviewed here. lips for technologists are offered on interventions that might enhance the quality of information available to the nucle...

Bile leak detection by radionuclide scintigraphy.

INTRODUCTION Bile leak after liver injury has been reported to be a complication associated with significant mortality. Tc99m-IDA (Tc: Technetium) nuclear scan allows rapid and noninvasive diagnosis of bile leak. OBJECTIVE An accidental case was referred for the detection of suspicious bile leak. METHODS The ultrasound could not detect any abnormality. Dynamic Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy (DH...

Hepatobiliary scintigraphy in 2014.

Cholescintigraphy with (99m)Tc-hepatobiliary radiopharmaceuticals has been an important, clinically useful diagnostic imaging study for almost 4 decades. It continues to be in much clinical demand; however, the indications, methodology, and interpretative criteria have evolved over the years. This review will emphasize state-of-the-art methodology and diagnostic criteria for various clinical in...

Characterization of Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy using Linear Equations

Hepatobiliary radionuclide imaging is typically performed to assess the acute or chronic cholecystitis. Occasionally, initial 1 h imaging reveals an obstructive pattern of radiopharmaceutical distribution with non-visualization of the hepatic or extra-hepatic (EH) bile ducts, gallbladder and small intestinal activity. One hundred and thirty five infants under 12 months of age (65 females and 70...
