Is a 90 minute gastric emptying test adequate?
annie21343
My rural, small hospital's protocol for a gastric emptying study is only 90 minutes. I'm reading that a 4 hour test is the gold standard. I don't know whether to go ahead or not. The study was ordered by my pcp, not a specialist.

That does seem a bit short. Can you go to a bigger institution? Insurance would cover that if in your state?
