Overview

Double-contrast Barium enema may be helpful in the diagnosis of familial adenomatous polyposis. Familial adenomatous polyposis might be presented as outgrowths with lobulation or indentation and filling defects on x-rays.

X Ray

  • Double-contrast Barium enema may be helpful in the diagnosis of colon polyps. Findings on an x-ray suggestive of colon polyps include:[1][2]
    • Pedunculated outgrowth
    • Basal indentation
    • Lobulation
    • Irregular surface contour
