Summary:

In this text for radiology trainees and radiologists, Levine et al. (gastrointestinal and genitourinary radiology, U. of Pennsylvania Medical Center) outline the role of fluoroscopy in the diagnosis of luminal gastrointestinal and genitourinary diseases. They detail how to perform and interpret all types of procedures for each part of the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts, including the modified barium swallow, videoflouroscopic pharyngography, double and single-contrast esophagography and upper GI exams, small bowel follow throughs, enteroclysis, double and single-contrast barium enemas, evacuation proctography, and all types of postoperative GI studies, as well as retrograde urethrography, voiding cystography, and retrograde pyeloureterography. They include solutions to problems and pitfalls and clinical and radiographic findings and differential diagnoses for major pathologic conditions, with images.
