Key Points: Validated options for assessing gastric emptying in patients with dietary restrictions that preclude eating the standard egg meal. We developed and tested a vegan and allergy friendly meal using a vegan egg product for gastric emptying scintigraphy in 10 healthy volunteers after confirming in vitro stability/performance. The tested vegan egg meal appears to be a suitable alternative to the standard egg meal for patients who are not able to eat eggs, though additional studies with larger sample sizes are needed for further validation.
