Presentation Persistent right upper quadrant pain with a normal ultrasound, showing no cholelithiasis, but with a positive Murphy's sign on examination.

Following IV administration of technetium-99m trimethylbromide, there is prompt, homogenous concentration of radiotracer in the liver of normal intensity. The liver is normal in size, position, …

Jan 1, 2026 · This is most commonly performed with Tc-99m-IDA analogs 1, and "hepatic IDA" imaging gave rise to the more common term "HIDA scan." Indications Cholescintigraphy can …

Nuclear Medicine HIDA scan shows hepatic uptake and excretion of radiotracer into hepatic/bile duct, gallbladder (inferior to the liver) and bowel, indicating a patent cystic duct.

A normal HIDA scan was performed with 75 MBq of Tc-99m DISIDA given intravenously, and imaging commenced at 1 hour after administration. An oral fat-rich meal was given to stimulate …

Jan 1, 2026 · Cholescintigraphy (HIDA) examination can assess the gallbladder ejection fraction by filling the gallbladder with radiotracer, then measuring the radioactivity as the gallbladder …

Normal hepatobiliary scintigraphy shows rapid uptake of radiotracer by the liver. The liver should appear homogeneous without areas of focally increased or decreased radiotracer activity.

Cholescintigraphy was done which showed normal gallbladder contraction excluding the possibility of gallbladder dysfunction. The patient was managed conservatively and the LFTs …

At present, the patients with biliary colic are initially investigated with liver function tests (LFTs) and abdominal ultrasound. If ultrasound or LFTs are normal, clinicians may advise further …
