title: [Whole-body radiometry in the evaluation of the absorptive and motor-evacuatory functions of the small and large intestines].
abstract: It is known that pathology of the small and large intestine, particularly in their total involvement, is accompanied by disturbance of the processes of digestion and absorption of fatty acids, proteins and vitamins. The existing methods for a study of absorption are complex and inadequate. The author proposed a comprehensive radionuclide study using whole-body radiometry permitting simultaneous assessment of motor-evacuatory function of the stomach, absorptive and motor-evacuatory function of the small and large intestines. Altogether 15 persons (controls) and 26 patients with inflammatory diseases of the large intestine were examined. The results of the study made it possible to detect disorders of digestion and absorption in the study group. The results should be taken into account for a choice of pathogenetically founded therapy in patients with inflammatory diseases of the small and large intestine.
