A client needs to have a gallbladder scan.  They called me frantic, but not 
with much information.  Their baby is younger than 6 mos and strictly bfed. 
Mom is having gallbladder trouble and all they were told is that they are 
putting a radioactive material into her blood for a scan and that she can't 
breastfeed for 3-4 days.  I haven't had any experience with this and I have 
Hale's book but I can't figure out which page the info is on.  For instance, 
is it under radiocontrast agents, radiopharmaceutical, or radioactive 
half-lives?  I was hoping to find more information on his webpage but the 
page on radioactive materials is down.  I am guessing I also need more 
information.  What kind of information?  I don't even know what to tell them 
to ask.  Can someone please give me some insight?  THANK YOU!
