Question:

What is a nuclear medicine test that studies your gall bladder?

it is called a hietescan?


Answers:

Hida scan. I've had one. You drink something radioactive (LOL) and they watch it go through your digestive system to see if it goes through your gallbladder or stops. My gallbladder was packed full of stones, so the liquid stopped and never moved on. I was admitted to the hospital that night and had my gallbladder out the next day. That was in 1989.
