Discordant hepatic uptake of Tc-99m HIDA and Tc-99m colloid in a patient with segmental biliary obstruction

Journal Article · · Clin. Nucl. Med.; (United States)
Discordant hepatic uptake between Tc-99m HIDA and Tc-99m colloid occurred in a 63-year-old female with segmental biliary obstruction due to cholangioma. Radiographic CT and a percutaneous transhepatic cholangiogram revealed the obstructed right hepatic duct as well as the dilated intrahepatic duct in the right lobe. At surgery this was confirmed, and a 2 cm mass encasing the right hepatic duct was identified. It should be included in the gamut of discordant hepatic uptake of Tc-99m IDA and Tc-99m colloid.
