[Acute cholecystitis. Early diagnostic study using cholescintigraphy with Tc99m-IDA].
34 patients admitted for suspected acute cholecystitis were evaluated using 99mTc IDA cholescintigraphy. The results of these studies are reviewed and compared with other diagnostic tests and the subsequent clinical diagnosis. Cholescintigraphy proved to be a safe, simple, highly accurate and sensitive technique. Therefore, 99mTc-IDA cholescintigraphy is proposed as the initial procedure of choice in the evaluation of patients with suspected acute cholecystitis.
