What abnormalities are found in a gastic emptying scan?
In a gastric emptying scan, abnormalities may include delayed gastric emptying (gastroparesis) or accelerated gastric emptying. Delayed emptying is characterized by prolonged retention of food in the stomach, often indicating conditions like diabetes or gastric outlet obstruction. Accelerated emptying may result from conditions like dumping syndrome, where food moves too quickly into the small intestine. These abnormalities can be assessed by measuring the percentage of food remaining in the stomach at set intervals post-ingestion.
