Abstract

AbstractAmylase‐creatinine clearance ratio and radionuclide hepatobiliary and pancreas imaging were used together as noninvasive screening procedures in 24 patients suspected of having acute pancreatitis. An increased amylase‐creatinine clearance ratio, normal filling of the gallbladder demonstrated by the radionuclide study, and decreased uptake of the radionuclide in the pancreas scan were helpful in reaching the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis.
