Colonoscopic appendicography. A new method for the differential diagnosis of pain in the right lower quadrant.
Colonoscopic appendicography is a simple diagnostic measure for surveying the position and anatomical qualities of the appendix. It is complementary to ileocolonoscopy and allows a decision to be made as to whether right lower abdominal pain is due to appendicular disease or not.
