Gallbladder emptying after intramuscular injection of cerulein was investigated by 99mTc-EHIDA hepatobiliary scintigraphy in 23 patients with biliary disease, 55 patients with chronic liver disease, and 21 normal controls. The mean gallbladder ejection fraction in patients with gallstones and liver cirrhosis was significantly reduced compared with normal controls. (gallstones: 56.3 +/- 21.3%, LC with gallstones: 50.8 +/- 29.6%, LC without gallstones: 55.9 +/- 26.7%, vs. normal controls: 74.4 +/- 12.9%, p less than 0.01). The mechanism for sluggish gallbladder emptying in liver cirrhosis is unknown, however impaired emptying with bile stasis provides a potential pathophysiologic basis for the high frequency of pigment stones.

D011877 Radionuclide Imaging The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.

D002108 Ceruletide A specific decapeptide obtained from the skin of Hila caerulea, an Australian amphibian. Caerulein is similar in action and composition to CHOLECYSTOKININ. It stimulates gastric, biliary, and pancreatic secretion; and certain smooth muscle. It is used in paralytic ileus and as diagnostic aid in pancreatic malfunction.

D002769 Cholelithiasis Presence or formation of GALLSTONES in the BILIARY TRACT, usually in the gallbladder (CHOLECYSTOLITHIASIS) or the common bile duct (CHOLEDOCHOLITHIASIS). Gallstone Disease,Cholelithiases,Gallstone Diseases
D005260 Female Females
D005704 Gallbladder A storage reservoir for BILE secretion. Gallbladder allows the delivery of bile acids at a high concentration and in a controlled manner, via the CYSTIC DUCT to the DUODENUM, for degradation of dietary lipid. Gallbladders
