Duodenal ulcer.
Duodenal ulcer constitutes one component of the clinical-pathologic complex of peptic disease of the duodenum. Recent evidence suggests that this chronic process may be cured with antibiotic therapy. Radiologic evaluation provides a cost-effective approach to the selection of patients for such management. Emphasis upon meticulous technique is essential for maximum patient benefit.
