Abstract
In a crossover study of more than 300 double contrast colon examinations [in humans], including 2200 radiographs, many common and some uncommon views were taken and compared. An optimal series of routine films and the order in which they shold be taken are presented. This will produce a complete colon examination in the most efficient way. Some technical considerations are presented which proved necessary to produce a superb examination. This new routine represents a reduction in number of films advocated by Welin and Miller in earlier publications. Findings are compatible with air contrast and full column techniques.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
