[Selective radiological visualization of the ileum and colon using total isoperistaltic entero-lavage. Personal methods]

A personal technique for the selective visualisation of the ileum and colon by means of total isoperistaltic enterolusis is described. Various cases and pathological conditions in which the method can most usefully be employed and its advantages with respect to conventional techniques are illustrated. These include a reduced risk of perforation in some instances and the possibility of carrying out a physiological examination of various aspects of intestinal function.
