Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract We oppose the opinion that the intra-arterial administration of iodine-based contrast media (CM) appears to pose a greater
risk of contrast medium-induced nephropathy (CIN) than intravenous administration since 1) in intra-arterial coronary procedures
and most other intra-arterial angiographic examinations, CM injections are also intravenous relative to the kidneys, 2) there
is a lack of comparative trials studying the risk of CIN between intra-arterial and intravenous procedures with matched risk
factors and CM doses, 3) a bias selection of patients with fewer risk factors may explain the seemingly...

Metal artefact reduction in gemstone spectral imaging dual-energy CT with and without metal artefact reduction softwareEmail this article to a colleague.
Save this article to My Clippings.
Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion Dual-energy CT with GSI-MARs can reduce metal-related artefacts and improve the delineation of the prosthesis and periprosthetic
region. We should be cautious when using GSI-MARs because the image quality was affected by the prosthesis composition, energy
(in keV) and DFOV. The metallic composition and size should be considered in metallic imaging with GSI-MARs reconstruction.
Key Points
• Metal-related artefacts can be troublesome on musculoskeletal computed tomography (CT).
• Gemstone spectral imaging (GSI) with dual-energy CT (DECT) offers a novel solution

The gold standard technique for measuring gastric emptying is scintigraphy using radiolabeled test meals. Recently, a standardized radiolabeled solid meal has been proposed and adopted by many centers. There is still a need for alternative meals, and several such meals with demonstrated radiolabel stability have been evaluated in small numbers of subjects. Updated radiation dosimetry associated with these meals has been calculated for adult males and adult females with normal gastrointestinal transit as well as transit abnormalities.

The clinical application driving these tests, prediction of remnant liver function after partial hepatectomy for primary liver malignancy or metastatic disease, is addressed here in detail. The test was recently validated for this specific application and was shown to be better than the current standard of practice (computed tomography volumetry), particularly in patients with hepatic comorbidities like cirrhosis, steatosis, or cholestasis. Furthermore,...

Discuss or comment on this article.
Transit assessment of the small intestine and colon is relevant in the study of physiology, pathophysiology, and pharmacodynamics, and there is increasing use of small-bowel and colonic transit measurements in clinical practice as well. The main methods that are applied in clinical practice are substrate-hydrogen breath tests for small-bowel transit and radiopaque markers for colonic transit. Over the past 2-3 decades, scintigraphy has become the preferred standard in research studies, particularly for studies of pathophysiology and pharmacodynamics. New approaches include experimental stable isotope measurement of oroceca...

Advancing Gastric Emptying Studies: Standardization and New Parameters to Assess Gastric Motility and FunctionEmail this article to a colleague.

Discuss or comment on this article.
For many years, gastric emptying (GE) studies were performed using various local protocols and different radiolabeled meals. This lack of standardization and normal values made the test results unreliable and difficult to compare from one site to another. A recent consensus has been published that now provides guidance and standardization on how to perform a radiolabeled solid-meal GE study. It is widely recognized, however, that simple measurement of total GE of a solid meal often does not provide an answer to the etiology of symptoms for a large number of patients who present with functional dyspepsia.

Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy in Acute CholecystitisEmail this article to a colleague.
Save this article to My Clippings.
Discuss or comment on this article.
Hepatobiliary scintigraphy is a mature imaging technique for evaluation of patients with acute cholecystitis (AC). It is effective in calculous and acalculous forms of AC. The test is used in contemporary medical practice as the arbiter when the findings from screening abdominal ultrasound do not fit a clinical picture. It is also performed in severely ill patients who have AC suspected on other testing, but whose frail condition and high operative risk demand the highest level of certainty. This review, therefore, examines all technique variations of hepatobiliary scintigraphy, offering an approach that may best fit a var...

Discuss or comment on this article.
Sincalide cholescintigraphy was first reported to have clinical utility in 1980. Since then, many publications have found that a reduced gallbladder ejection fraction (GBEF) can confirm the clinical diagnosis of acalculous chronic gallbladder disease and predict symptomatic relief with cholecystectomy. However, some publications had not found the test clinically predictive. Many different sincalide infusion methods and normal values have been used. It had been suspected that the different infusion methods and normal values might account for the variability in reported utility. Furthermore, clinical review articles have rai...

Discuss or comment on this article.
In my last guest editorial on gastrointestinal (GI) nuclear medicine in the Seminars in Nuclear Medicine in October 1995, I pointed out that there are few, if any, other nuclear medicine studies, such as gastric emptying, that are considered a gold standard with which other methods need to be compared. I stressed, however, that there was the need for continued efforts within the nuclear medicine community to prevent tarnishing this gold standard. Since then, we have made significant progress especially in standardizing gastric emptying. Additional progress, however, still needs to be made to prevent new imaging and nonimag...

As pointed out by Dr. Alan Maurer in his guest editorial, it has been more than 15 years since he guest edited another Seminars issue, a two-part review of gastrointestinal (GI) nuclear imaging. A significant portion of the progress that has been made relates to attempted standardization of several of these studies. In particular, cooperative efforts between GI, radiology, and nuclear medicine societies have resulted in standardized methodology for gastric emptying studies. Whereas, half-time of emptying (T1/2) was previously considered the accepted key value or “gold standard,” current thoughts center more on the rete...

SummaryMaximal exercise test with gas exchange measurement evaluates exercise capacities with maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) measurement. Measurements of lactate (L), lactate/pyruvate ratio (L/P) and ammonium (A) during rest, exercise and recovery enhance interpretative power of maximal exercise by incorporating muscular metabolism exploration. Maximal exercise test with gas exchange measurement is standardized in cardiopulmonary evaluations but, no reference data of blood muscular metabolites are available to evaluate the muscular metabolism. We determined normal values of L, L/P and A during a standardized maximal exerci...
