title: Gallbladder perforation seen on hepatobiliary imaging following morphine sulfate injection.
abstract: A case of gallbladder perforation imaged during morphine-augmented cholescintigraphy is presented. Tc-99m DISIDA imaging dramatically demonstrated the bile leak. Whether morphine sulfate contributed to the perforation of the gallbladder is debatable.
