		Researchers repeatedly identified a connection between celiac disease and gall bladder malfunction with such comments as: Thus the already impaired fat absorption in celiac sprue is magnified by the lack of bile delivery.....; and We conclude that there is a reversible defect of gallbladder emptying and cholecystokinin release in celiac disease.

		Authors classified 161 cases of photon defects due to the gall bladder on hepatic parenchymal scintigraphy on Tc-99m-phytate and Tc-99m-DISIDA according to the position of the gall bladder, the pattern of photon defects and the hepatobiliary diseases.
		The results were as follows; 1) Conocordance of Tc-99m-DISIDA and Tc-99m-phytate hepatic parenchymal images in photon defect due to the gall bladder was 94% of 32 cases.
		3) The pattern of the photon defects due to the gall bladder was 47% of funnel shape in the intrahepatic gall bladder, 69% of semilunar shape in the gall bladder of the lower margin of the liver and 100% of semilunar shape in the extrahepatic gall bladder.
