Collimators help eliminate scatter, which leads to poor spatial resolution and blurry images. We present the case of a posttherapy 177 Lu-DOTATATE (Lutathera) patient who was initially imaged with a low-energy, high-resolution collimator routinely used in 99m Tc imaging. On image review, the patient was reimaged with the appropriate medium-energy, high-resolution collimator, which resulted in improved image quality. When reviewing the quality of images, it is important to understand modi fi cations to the imaging that can signi fi cantly improve image quality and interpretation.","PeriodicalId":16548,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nuclear medicine technology","volume":"151 S301","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139006438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, recurrent shortages of synthetic cholecystokinin analogs have prompted the exploration of alternative agents. This paper describes the ef fi cacy of Ensure Plus as a viable fatty meal substitute for hepatobiliary scintigraphy in assessing chronic functional gall-bladder disorder. Through comparative studies, Ensure Plus demonstrates comparable diagnostic accuracy to cholecystokinin in similar patient populations. Furthermore, Ensure Plus demonstrates signi fi - cant symptom improvement after cholecystectomy in patients with anomalous gallbladder ejection fractions. This paper offers a detailed protocol for the seamless integration of Ensure Plus into hepatobiliary scintigraphy, providing clinicians with a valuable tool to navigate cholecystokinin shortages while maintaining diagnostic precision in cases of chronic functional gallbladder disorder. The use of Ensure Plus not only addresses practical supply challenges but also underscores its potential as a cost-effective and clinically sound alternative in biliary diagnostics.","PeriodicalId":16548,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nuclear medicine technology","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139003413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
