Radiographic features of gastritis using the biphasic contrast technique

Gastritis is a group of inflammatory disorders that can be diagnosed radiographically. The optimum radiographic examination of the stomach is the biphasic-contrast technique, which includes the use of a medium-dense barium sulfate suspension and a hypotonic agent. Knowledge of the forms of gastritis, a careful application of biphasic-contrast technique, and a perceptive evaluation of information will help the radiologist to detect this entity with great frequency.
