  • Title: Radioselenium in duodenal aspirate as an assessment of pancreatic exocrine function.
    Author: Youngs GR, Agnew JE, Levin GE, Bouchier IA.
    Journal: Br Med J; 1971 May 01; 2(5756):252-5. PubMed ID: 5572384.
    Abstract:
    A new test of pancreatic exocrine function is described in which radioselenium is measured in duodenal aspirate after an intravenous injection of (75)Se-selenomethionine and administration of a Lundh test meal. Duodenal (75)Se activity gave good separation between normals and subjects with disease of the exocrine pancreas and correlated well with trypsin levels in the aspirate.
