my 13 year old daughter had an uptrasound today which showed she has what they say is consistant with gallstones. Our pediatrician spoke with a pediatric surgeon who has ordered a hida scan. Is this safe and the best way to go?
Yes, it's very safe. It will show the ejection rate for her gb. Anything below 35% is considered not functioning properly. Sounds like she might be headed for removal.
My cousin's granddaughter. is almost 14 and she is to have gallbladder surgery soon.
My son Tripp is to have the HIDA scan tomorrow. From what i understand it is safe.
