Biliary Scintigraphy
After technetium 99m-labeled derivatives of iminodiacetic acid (HIDA) are injected intravenously, they are cleared by the Kupffer's cells in the liver and excreted in the bile. Normally, after injection, peak activity is detected in the liver in 10 min, and the biliary ducts can be identified shortly thereafter. The gallbladder is visualized within 60 min in fasting subjects (Fig. 29-10). The test is particularly applicable when the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis is being considered. Evidence of cystic duct obstruction, as indicated by nonvisualization of the gallbladder, is highly diagnostic. The isotopic visualization of the gallbladder essentially precludes the diagnosis. The accuracy of the test in diagnosing acute cholecystitis is about 97 percent.
