  • Title: Scintigraphic assessment of biliary reflux into the residual stomach after subtotal gastrectomy and gastrojejunostomy.
    Author: Gustavsson S, Enander LK, Jung B, Krog M.
    Journal: Acta Radiol Diagn (Stockh); 1980; 21(5):639-43. PubMed ID: 7457194.
    Abstract:
    A method is described for evaluating biliary reflux into the gastric remnant after subtotal gastrectomy, avoiding naso- or orogastric intubation. Gamma camera detection and continuous recording of the distribution and possible gastric reflux of 99Tcm-HIDA after intravenous injection was employed, before and after stimulation of bile flow by a fatty meal. The technique is simple and specific, but further clinical evaluation is needed.
