  • Title: Cholescintigraphy: gallbladder nonvisualization secondary to neoplasm.
    Author: Lecklitner ML, Rosen PR, Nusynowitz ML.
    Journal: J Nucl Med; 1981 Aug; 22(8):699-700. PubMed ID: 7264758.
    Abstract:
    Whereas the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis is characterized by nonvisualization of the gallbladder with Tc-99m iminodiacetic acid derivatives, nonvisualization is not specific for acute cholecystitis. The first reported case of nonvisualization of the gallbladder due to neoplasm is added to an expanding list of causes of nonvisualization other than the more frequent causes: acute and chronic cholecystitis.
