Overview
Both 2D and 3D transabdominal ultrasound is helpful in the diagnosis of gastroparesis. Findings on ultrasound suggestive of gastroparesis includes: prolonged distal and proximal gastric emptying T50, larger antral area, lower gastric emptying rate, fewer antral contractions.
Ultrasound
- Transabdominal ultrasound is helpful in the diagnosis of gastroparesis. Both 2D or 3D ultrasound can be used to assess gastric emptying function. Compared to the “gold standard” scintigraphy for Gastric Emptying function evaluation, ultrasound is reliable although operator dependent, inexpensive, widely available, radiation-free diagnostic modality. Findings on ultrasound suggestive of gastroparesis includes:[1]
- Prolonged distal and proximal gastric emptying T50
- Larger antral area
- Lower gastric emptying rate
- Fewer antral contractions
