The effect of gastric secretion on gastric physiology and emptying in the fasted and fed state assessed by magnetic resonance imaging
Neurogastroenterology and Motility, 06/18/09

Goetze O et al. - The study shows volume and distribution of gastric secretion can be quantified in-vivo by non-invasive MRI T1 mapping. Increased GCV drove TGV accommodation without evidence of a direct effect of pentagastrin or excess acid on gastric function. Secretion increases GCV thus prolongs GE as assessed by T50; however, GE rate is unchanged.
