Abstract:The effect of atropine on the bile flow and biliary excretion of ioglycamate, a biliary contrast medium, was studied on four anesthetized mongrel dogs equipped with a Thomas cannula through which the common bile duct was cannulated. With an infusion rate of 2 microgram/kg/min atropine sulphate decreased bile flow significantly. At the same time, the biliary concentration of ioglycamate was significantly increased. The biliary output of ioglycamate did not change during atropine infusion. The present study sugg… Show more
