Gall Bladder High Hida Scan # Posted: 11-25-04 16:34pm
All of my gall bladder tests have been
negative but my hida scan showed my
result as #74 which means overactive.
Has anyone had this happen? If so, what
were you told and what did you do? I do
have symptons but I feel so in limbo.

I do hida scans, and I have never
heard of a "high or overactive hida scan"
a normal gallbladder ejection fraction is
typically 60 to 90 %. A higher reading
is unusual but not abnormal.
Sometimes, overactive bowels can
result in radioisotope obscuring the
gallbladder, making measuring the
gallbladder ejection fraction difficult,
if not impossible.
I think you need to get clairifcation
from your doctor about what exactly your
hida scan is telling him.
