Re: HIDA with ejection traction
Is this for your gallbladder?

Re: HIDA with ejection traction
If this is the gall bladder function test, I had it.
It didn't take that long, maybe 45 min- 1 hour.
It is like an x-ray. Then they inject the die through the iv. Not terrible.
Good Luck

Re: HIDA with ejection traction
thanks for the responses - yes, it was for the gallbladder...and you're right it was painless, but it took almost 2 hours.

Re: HIDA with ejection traction
I had a HIDA scan done about 5 years ago. I think it took 1.5 hours. It was nothing

Re: HIDA with ejection traction
