A member asked:
Is it possible for you to have hyperkinetic biliary dyskinesia with a normal hida scan?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
HIDA: Hida scan can be performed with or without cck. The cck portion of the scan allows for calculation of gallbladder ejection fraction. Hida scan can be normal (no cystic duct or common duct obstruction) but gallbladder ejection fraction can be high. The clinical meaning of a high gallbladder ejection fraction is debatable.

Possibly: Most physicians in nuclear medicine and gastroenterology believe that increased ejection fraction of gall bladder is probably normal (above 35%). A well known nuclear physician reported small group of patients with hyperkinetic gall bladder getting relief with removal of gb. More studies needed to convince most surgeons.
