Data on hepatobiliary examination by sup(99m)Tc dimethyl IDA

Hepatobiliary elimination of sup(99m)Tc dimethyl IDA was studied by scintiphotographic detection in 16 normal subjects. Normal criterion were established. Scintiphotographic modifications due to the principal hepatobiliary disease were described. Abnormal scintiphotographic sequences can be described in terms of accumulative figures in the biliary tract, of deficit of hepatocytary collecting, of figures of hepatocytary retention of deficit of local fixation, of absence of gallbladder illumination. Examination by sup(99m)Tc dimethyl IDA is a precious help for diagnosis of icterus, of disease of the gallbladder. An interesting indication is control of biliarydigestive anastomosis
