ejection fraction (GBEF) in patients with suspected chronic acalculous gallbladder …

Objective. Both sonography and scintigraphy have been used to evaluate gallbladder
function with the use of sincalide (cholecystokinin [CCK]). However, the reported ejection …

Sincalide-stimulated cholescintigraphy is performed to quantify gallbladder contraction and
