  • Title: False-negative morphine-augmented cholescintigraphy: a case of subacute gallbladder perforation.
    Author: Achong DM, Newman JS, Oates E.
    Journal: J Nucl Med; 1992 Feb; 33(2):256-7. PubMed ID: 1732450.
    Abstract:
    The gallbladder and an infected pericholecystic biloma secondary to subacute perforation were visualized during morphine-augmented cholescintigraphy. Perforation of the gallbladder may relieve cystic duct obstruction and contribute to false-negative visualization in the setting of acute cholecystitis.
