  • Title: Double-contrast upper gastrointestinal radiography: a pattern approach for diseases of the stomach.
    Author: Rubesin SE, Levine MS, Laufer I.
    Journal: Radiology; 2008 Jan; 246(1):33-48. PubMed ID: 18096527.
    Abstract:
    The double-contrast upper gastrointestinal series is a valuable diagnostic test for evaluating structural and functional abnormalities of the stomach. This article will review the normal radiographic anatomy of the stomach. The principles of analyzing double-contrast images will be discussed. A pattern approach for the diagnosis of gastric abnormalities will also be presented, focusing on abnormal mucosal patterns, depressed lesions, protruded lesions, thickened folds, and gastric narrowing.
