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.
Itâs often used when a person has gallbladder symptoms but the ultrasound didnât show a reason for the symptoms. A HIDA scan can also be used for a more thorough evaluation of the bile duct system. This test can evaluate the function of the gallbladder using a harmless radioactive substance.
