Acute cholecystitis: 137 patients studied by infusion tomography of the gallbladder

R Moncada, M Cardoso, R Danley, J Rodriguez, K Kimura, J Pickleman, and J Brandly

Clinical experience with inflammatory cholecystopathy recognized in 137 patients studied by infusion tomography of the gallbladder is presented. Diagnostic accuracy was 96% in positive and 94% in negative histologically proven cases. Our results show that infusion tomography of the gallbladder is an accurate, rapid, and safe diagnostic aid in the evaluation of acute cholecystitis. In cases of chronic cholecystitis, infusion tomography may be confirmatory but should not be relied on as a final diagnostic test due to a high percentage of false negative cases.
