Gastric-emptying studies have no accepted standard methodology or reference values. A
simplified standardized protocol with a large reference database has been proposed, with …

Our goal was to study the accuracy of a limited assessment relative to the traditional and
obtain a more detailed approach to measure gastric emptying. Methods: We prospectively …

1. Radionuclide markers, whether liquid, semi-solid, or solid, must have a high labeling
efficiency and be stable throughout the duration of the procedure. 2. Meal size and …

A standard, dual-isotope meal (Tc-99m-egg sandwich and ln-111 DTPA in water) was
administered to 14 normal volunteers and 37 patients, who had not undergone gastric …

The purposes of this investigation were to standardize and validate a simple quantitative
method for performing radionuclide solid gastric emptying that can be used for any dual …

The medical literature states that solid gastric-emptying studies are more sensitive for the
detection of gastroparesis than are liquid studies; thus, liquid studies are rarely required …

Objectives To analyse our results of gastric-emptying scintigraphy in relation to presenting
symptoms, and examine in detail the clinical significance of rapid gastric emptying (RGE) …

OBJECTIVE: Scintigraphy remains the gold standard to study gastric emptying. The
technique is onerous and normal values vary between centers. Standardized protocols …

This consensus statement from the members of the American Neurogastroenterology and
Motility Society and the Society of Nuclear Medicine recommends a standardized method for …
