The recent use of scintigraphic methods has demonstrated that disordered gastric emptying
occurs frequently. Delayed gastric emptying is more common than rapid gastric emptying …

The gastric emptying of a mixed solid and liquid meal was assessed in 24 normal subjects
using a single camera/computer system which allowed continuous monitoring of both solids …

Although delayed gastric emptying is found in some patients with functional dyspepsia, there
seems to be little relation between rate of emptying and symptoms. This study examined the …

The aim of this study was to define better the motor phenomena associated with the slowing
of gastric emptying by a duodenal lipid infusion. Antral, pyloric and duodenal motility were …

Using a dual-headed gamma camera and a standardized egg test meal labeled with 99m Tc-
sulfur colloid, the quantitative emptying of the total, proximal and distal stomach in five …

Background: The correlation between symptoms and observed impaired function in
functional dyspepsia is still inconsistent. The aims of the study were to obtain a measure of …

Background Gastroparesis is a chronic disorder caused by stomach pump failure and
characterized by profound nausea, vomiting and epigastric pain. Most often, the cause is …

This study was performed to assess:(1) the inter-and intrasubject variability of gastric
emptying measurements by a scintigraphic method in 12 healthy subjects and 14 diabetic …

To characterize proximal and distal stomach emptying in functional dyspepsia (FD) and
