Abstract:
By analyzing the morphology of a focal lesion or the distribution, location, and morphology of the intestinal folds, the radiologist can come to a specific diagnosis or construct a graded differential diagnosis. This article presents a simplified approach to the differential diagnosis of small intestinal diseases by combining this roentgen analysis with the clinical history.
