[Cholescintigraphy in the evaluation of duodenogastric reflux in cholelithiasis]
Abstract:
A total of 103 patients with cholelithiasis and those operated on one year ago were investigated using modified cholescintigraphy permitting the determination of a size, duration and spreading of the gastroduodenal reflux. Dynamic cholescintigraphy was shown to be an effective method of the diagnosis and quantitative estimation of the gastroduodenal reflux in patients with cholelithiasis and patients after cholecystectomy. In patients with the postcholecystectomy syndrome the gastroduodenal reflux was detected more frequently, and its quantitative indicators were lower than those in patients with cholelithiasis.

Radionuclide Testing
Radionuclide testing is a sophisticated medical technique for assessing gastrointestinal motility. It focuses on gastric emptying and colonic transit time. Radioactive markers track the movement of food through the digestive system, providing insights into gastrointestinal disorders.
