title: [Current indications for barium meal examinations of the small intestine in malabsorption syndromes in children (author's transl)].
abstract: The authors study the correlation between the degree of abnormality seen on radiological examination and the extent of atrophy of the villi in 29 children suspected to have had malabsorption syndromes. The radiological signs are valid but at the present time-intestinal biopsy is the only certain diagnostic examination. Based on these observations, an attempt is made to define the indications for barium meal examination of the small intestine.
