Q

significance of gastric juice analysis

A
  • determines whether or not a patient can secrete any gastric juice.
  • measures the amount of gastric acid that can be secreted by a patient with symptoms of peptic ulcer.
  • reveals the hypersecretory characteristic state of the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome
  • determines the completeness of vagotomy by the insulin test
  • determines numerous conditions that disturb functions of the stomach, duodenum, liver, pancreas and the systematic condition of anemia.
  • helps the physician in the diagnosis of gastric disease and assist him in the selection of its therapy and prognosis.
