HIDA test range

What percentage is considered "normal" for HIDA test results?  Does the range vary at different testing facilities?  

Thanks for any info.

My daughter came in at 4% ...................... she has 100% success a year later since her dysfunctional gallbladder was removed and she was only 16yrs old.  

They told us the lower the #, the higher % chance it will be a success in the symptom dept.

So with a 4% HIDA Scan result, we were told she'd probably have a 96% success rate.

It typically ranges about 35-50%. But 'normal' is 'relative.'
