Procedure. There are many methods for measuring body temperature. The most common method is oral temperature. 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. Remove and then read the measurement.
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.
A gallbladder scan, also known as a HIDA (hepatobiliary iminodiacetic acid) scan, is a procedure that uses a radioactive substance to take pictures of your gallbladder, liver, and bile ducts.
