title: [Is the preparation of barium enema a sound preparation for echography?].
abstract: Findings were compared of examinations in 50 patients not specially prepared and 50 patients placed on a non-residue diet and receiving pre-radiological preparation before barium enemas. Visibility of the pancreas and the global quality of images were improved in patients previously prepared, but not to a sufficient degree to justify its routine use.
