    Author: Maglinte DD, Miller RE, Chernish SM, Lappas JC.
    Journal: Radiology; 1985 May; 155(2):525-6. PubMed ID: 3983405.
    Abstract:
    During a five year period, 62 patients each underwent two barium enema examinations. The length of time that the rectal tube remained in place varied in each subject. Early rectal-tube removal resulted in better patient acceptance of the double-contrast barium enema examination.
