14C-UBT	GBFT (min)	GB t1/2 (min)	GBEF30 (A) %	GBEF60 (A) %	GBEF30 (B) %	GBEF60 (B) %
Positive (n = 58)	53.71 ± 3.49	44.15 ± 4.38 (n = 27)	36.58 ± 5.82 (n = 36)	52.88 ± 5.38 (n = 33)	35.55 ± 4.07 (n = 40)	53.86 ± 5.06 (n = 36)
Negative (n = 8)	61.21 ± 4.50	51.08 ± 4.43 (n = 12)	24.35 ± 3.80 (n = 20)	47.11 ± 5.88 (n = 19)	26.38 ± 3.53 (n = 21)	47.55 ± 4.57 (n = 20)

GBFT: Gallbladder filling time; GB t1/2: Gallbladder half emptying time; GBEF₃₀: Gallbladder ejection fraction at 30 min; GBEF₆₀: Gallbladder ejection fraction at 60 min; A: Experienced observer; B: Inexperienced observer.
