Title: [Primary double contrast study of the large intestine using citrate-sorbitol-barium suspension in the diagnosis of chronic colitis]. Author: Sidorov VS. Journal: Med Radiol (Mosk); 1991; 36(2):9-11. PubMed ID: 1996079. Abstract: X-ray investigation of the colon was conducted in 292 patients with clinically diagnosed chronic colitis: standard 3-phase irrigoscopy-in 189 patients and a primary double contrast study of the colon with citrate-sorbitol-barium suspension in 103. Basing on x-ray and morphological findings, the diagnosis was confirmed in 128 patients of the 1st group (68.2%) and in 89 patients of the 2nd group (86%). The primary double contrast study of the colon was found more effective as it permitted the detection of elements of the mucosal "microcontours": transversal strips, not coinciding with haustration, focal granularity, diffuse granularity, small barium suspension "depots" or "niches", nodular granularity. It permitted the recommendation of the method for a wide clinical use.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
