Cholecystokinin-Cholescintigraphy in Adults: Consensus Recommendations of an Interdisciplinary Panel
2011, Clinical Gastroenterology and HepatologyCitation Excerpt :Gallstones, regardless of type, are typically classified into symptomatic or asymptomatic. It has been previously demonstrated that GBEF is frequently reduced in patients with gallstones,49,50 although the role this plays in the pathogenesis of gallstone disease remains unclear as does its association with symptoms. Two major questions have emerged regarding the possible use of CCK-CS in patients with cholelithiasis: (1) can CCK-CS predict which asymptomatic patient will progress to symptoms; and, (2) can CCK-CS determine whether atypical symptoms are of gallbladder origin?
