Abstract:
Gastrinomas are usually diagnosed clinically and localized before surgery using various imaging modalities including ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, angiography, and venous sampling. The authors present a case in which CT, MRI, and angiography were negative in attempting to localize the gastrinoma, but In-111 pentetreotide localized the lesion, which was proven surgically.

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.
