The thermometer must be placed beneath the tongue to one side and the lips must be closed around it tightly. Allow it to remain inside for the necessary period of time.

During a HIDA Scan a scanner monitors the radioisotope that was initially injected. When (CCK) cholecystokinin, a hormone that's normally released by the body after a meal, is injected, the contraction of the gallbladder is identified on the scan. Reduced contraction (which often produces pain) may mean anything from actual gallbladder disease/dysfunction, to inflammation or scarring.
When you eat, your gallbladder releases bile into the bile duct, where it's carried to the upper part of the small intestine (duodenum) to help break down fat in food. A HIDA scan is most often done to evaluate your gallbladder. It's also used to look at the bile-excreting function of your liver and to track the flow of bile from your liver into your small intestine. A HIDA scan is often used with X-ray and ultrasound. A HIDA scan might help in the diagnosis of several diseases and conditions, such as: Gallbladder inflammation (cholecystitis)
