2015 UK software audit of hepatobiliary scintigraphy.

Introduction: This audit investigated hepatobiliary function imaging in UK hospitals, reviewing protocol differences in acquisition and processing parameters and the effect on calculated gallbladder ejection fraction (GBEF).

Participants And Methods: Two dynamic data sets were available: one continuous dynamic data set, and the other with a 5-min break to administer the fatty stimulus. Participants used a set of 12 anonymized patient data sets most similar to their standard protocol calculating GBEF using their routine method.
