Barium filling for glucagon-resistant spasm on double-contrast barium enema examinations.
Severe glucagon-resistant spasm on double-contrast barium enema (DCE) examinations may occasionally lead to a nondiagnostic examination or erroneously suggest colonic disease. In such cases, this glucagon-resistant spasm may be overcome by refilling the colon with single-contrast barium immediately after completion of the DCE examination.
