Gastric Emptying Rate Calculator Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Gastric Emptying Rate Calculator calculator and its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the Tritium Activity at Time 1 (MBq).
  2. Enter the Time 1 (minutes).
  3. Enter the Time 2 (minutes).
  4. Enter the Activity at Time 2 (MBq).
  5. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the Gastric Emptying Rate.

Working Principle

The Gastric Emptying Rate (GER) is calculated using the formula:

GER = (A1 - A2) / (A1 - A0)

Where:

  • GER = Gastric Emptying Rate
  • A1 = Tritium Activity at Time 1 (MBq)
  • A2 = Activity at Time 2 (MBq)
  • A0 = Tritium Activity at Time 2 (MBq)

This calculator helps in assessing the rate at which the stomach empties its contents, which is useful in clinical settings to evaluate digestive health.
