Title: Radionuclide enemas for localization of gastrointestinal bleeding sites. Author: Cohen AJ, McCalley M, Braunstein P. Journal: Gastrointest Radiol; 1983; 8(4):349-51. PubMed ID: 6357935.

The radionuclide enema also obviates the need for barium examinations that would interfere with subsequent angiography.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
