Barium examination of the small intestine.
Barium radiology remains the method of choice for the diagnosis and evaluation of many small intestinal disorders. Enteroclysis (small bowel enema) is proving to be a quick and efficient way of examining the small intestine. During enteroclysis the intestine is distended with barium contrast medium, clearly demonstrating any morphological changes that may be present.
