  • Title: Gallbladder localization fo 131I-19-iodocholesterol; a pitfall in adrenal imaging.
    Author: Byck W, Pauwels EK.
    Journal: Radiol Clin (Basel); 1976; 45(2-4):302-5. PubMed ID: 948578.
    Abstract:
    Gallbladder concentration of 131I-iodocholesterol was observed in a patient studied for localization of adrenal activity. Misinterpretation of gallbladder activity as right adrenal function is possible if a lateral view is not obtained. The exposure of gallbladder mucosa may occasionally be far higher than the remainder of the biliary tract.
