title: Conventional oral cholecystography versus single-visit oral cholecystography.
abstract: The conventional manner of preparing ambulatory patients for oral cholecystography with six tablets of iopanoic acid yields results which are essentially equal to those obtained by single-visit oral cholecystography (two-day preparation with 12 tablets of iopanoic acid). Also, it is more convenient for patients and referring physicians. The conventional method of preparation is recommended for hospitalized patients as well.
