Abstract

Small-bowel obstruction is a fairly common cause of abdominal pain. Differentiating between true duodenal obstruction and pseudo obstruction is important given differing treatment strategies. Here, we present augmentation of a hepatobiliary scan with a small amount of oral liquids and delayed imaging to differentiate between these two entities.

  • cholecystitis
  • cholescintigraphy
  • common bile duct obstruction
  • duodenal obstruction
  • malrotation
