Abstract

Scintigraphy of the liver and biliary tree has held a position of importance from the earliest days of nuclear medicine until the present. While modalities of ultrasound, CT, and MRI have taken over the role of anatomic imaging from scintigraphy, important functional aspects of liver and biliary tree physiology remain to be addressed primarily through colloid, red blood cell, and hepatobiliary scintigraphy. The current applications will be reviewed in the current chapter.
