Abstract
A 2-year-old boy with Rotor syndrome was studied with Tc-99m N-(di-iso propylphenyl carbamoylmethyl) iminodiacetic acid (DIPA). In this patie nt, the liver was not visualized, and there was persistent visualizati on of the cardiac blood pool and along with prominent kidney excretion . It is concluded that Tc-99m DIPA cholescintigraphy may be helpful in the diagnosis of Rotor syndrome.
