A member asked:

I had a hida scan conducted today and the tech commented about the reactor being ejected through my kidneys. what could this mean? tia.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I think she meant: Tracer being excreted from your kidneys. That's normal, as the nuclear medicine dye is excreted by the kidneys. Not sure why the tech felt the need to say it.
