lidofenin (HIDA)

02/01/2011 - "The CCK HIDA scan is a useful study in the investigation of acalcalous cholecystitis; however, we would suggest that recreation of symptoms following CCK provocation is superior to EF for the identification of underlying chronic cholecystitis. "
04/01/2010 - "In the course of performing HIDA studies, several incidental findings suggesting chronic cholecystitis may be encountered. "
10/01/2012 - "18FDG-PET-CT appears to be a promising, rapid, direct, and accurate test in diagnosing cholecystitis and could replace HIDA scan in cases that remain equivocal after ultrasound."
01/01/2012 - "The CT scan was read as suggestive of cholecystitis, however a hepatobiliary scintigraphy (HIDA) scan was ordered for confirmation, as the patient was a poor operative candidate. "
09/01/2011 - "Cholecystitis and HIDA scan."

10/01/2012 - "First case highlights the role of HIDA scan in diagnosis of duplicated GB, where USG was equivocal with a number of differentials, whereas in the second case, HIDA helped to rule out obstruction in this case of duplicated GB identified on USG; ruling out biliary cause for the abdominal colic. "
08/01/2008 - "Both agents should be considered reasonable options in the ED treatment of biliary colic, especially in patients that may undergo HIDA."
07/01/2000 - "These patients presented with recurrent episodes of biliary colic together with a dysmorphic or dysfunctioning gallbladder as confirmed by ultrasound and/or cholescintiscan with 99m-Tc HIDA performed in fasting conditions and after meals. "
07/01/2015 - "A HIDA scan with EF was not useful in patients with typical symptoms of biliary colic and negative ultrasounds, and should not be used to make a decision for cholecystectomy. "
09/01/2013 - "A subset of pediatric patients with high ejection fractions on CCK-HIDA and symptomatic biliary colic may have symptomatic relief with cholecystectomy. "

12/01/2007 - "We conclude that during 1 y follow-up HJ with no anastomotic stricture formation is associated with improved extrahepatic bile drainage, but with ascending contamination of bile ducts with bacteria, which might be involved with the fibrous periportal changes in the liver resulting in diminished excretion of Tc-HIDA from the hepatocytes into the bile. "
03/01/1994 - "Bile stasis with stricture of left intrahepatic ducts were found by Tc-99m HIDA cholangiography and endoscopic retrograde cholangiography. "
03/01/1983 - "Diagnosing papillary stenosis by technetium-99m HIDA scanning."
02/01/2010 - "HIDA also aids in the diagnosis of partial biliary obstruction due to stones, biliary stricture, and sphincter of Oddi obstruction. "
01/01/1998 - "Type I and III cysts showed almost ideal follow-up with no sign of stricture on HIDA scan. "

08/01/1985 - "Ultrasonography followed by HIDA and PIPIDA scans may be very useful in diagnosing acute acalculous cholecystitis, which appears to be an increasingly frequent problem in these patients. "
12/01/2006 - "Hepatobiliary iminodiacetic scan with ejection fraction (HIDA EF) is used to evaluate chronic acalculous cholecystitis (CAC). "
12/01/2006 - "HIDA scan ejection fraction does not predict sphincter of Oddi hypertension or clinical outcome in patients with suspected chronic acalculous cholecystitis."
04/01/1998 - "In 23 patients, the CD4 count was < 200; the gallbladder was visualized in 5 patients for a HIDA sensitivity of 78%; 16 (52%) had acalculous cholecystitis; and 15 had calculous cholecystitis. "

11/01/1993 - "In conclusion, HIDA administered before cisplatin protects against drug-induced toxicity without reducing the drug's antitumour activity when used alone or in combination with hyperthermia and/or radiation, and thus results in a significantly improved therapeutic benefit."
01/01/2013 - "Discussion by the Tokyo Guidelines Revision Committee concluded that acute cholecystitis should be suspected when Murphy's sign, local inflammatory findings in the gallbladder such as right upper quadrant abdominal pain and tenderness, and fever and systemic inflammatory reaction findings detected by blood tests are present but that definite diagnosis of acute cholecystitis can be made only on the basis of the imaging of ultrasonography, computed tomography or scintigraphy (HIDA scan). "
10/01/1985 - "Two patients presenting with right upper abdominal colicky pain, jaundice, and fever had a hepatobiliary scan using Tc 99m HIDA. "
11/01/1993 - "The effect of tetrahydraindazolone dicarboxylic acid (HIDA) on tumour response and mouse lethality after treatment with cisplatin given either alone or combined with hyperthermia (43.5 degrees C/60 min) with or without radiation, was studied in the CDF1 mouse bearing a foot transplanted C3H mouse mammary carcinoma.
