To describe the hida scan...
you lay on a table and the give you a chemical called cholesystikinan. they place a camera over the gallbladder area. take pictures as the med passes through.
it was really a relaxing test where I had it done because it was in a dark room and they placed warm blankets over me. It was a soft table also. I wasn't anxious at all once it started going. I recommend it for a true diagnosis of your gallbladder.
