4-6 hours after narcotics

use morphine if you visualize the intesting but no gall bladder at 30-60 minutes. after admin if gallbladder is seen then chronic chole if not seen then acute

cck give 30 minutes prior if pt npo for > 24 hours. give during study to calculate GBEF. dont use after morphine

ensure plus 237 ml to ensure ef with no cck

phenobarbital with peds will be uptaken into biliary if just jaundixe wbut no uptake if biliary atresia..
