Abstract
A report of 99mTc-PIPIDA as a diagnostic biliary agent in children is presented. The laboratory values and radiologic examinations are included to demonstrate the clinical value of the agent in evaluating both congenital and acquired pediatric biliary tract abnormalities. The role of 99mTc biliary tract imaging in children is discussed.
