title: [Current x-ray diagnosis of Crohn's disease of the small intestine].
abstract: The paper evaluates the potential for x-ray diagnosis of Crohn's disease of the small intestine in 18 patients using the new barium contrast medium Entero-VU intended for examination of the small intestine. The authors provide a detailed description of the examination technique, x-ray appearance of Crohn's disease and make a comparative analysis of the diagnostic potential for the use of the common barium suspension and the contrast agent Entero-VU. The cases of Crohn's disease analyzed in the paper encompass its different stages and sites in the small intestine. The group of patients presenting with Crohn's disease accrued subjects who had undergone surgical treatment followed by reexamination of the small intestine using Entero-VU. According to the authors, the new barium contrast medium Entero-VU intended for small intestine examination possesses two basic advantages: simplicity of examination and high diagnostic efficacy.
