Service Providers for Digital Ba-meal study of Stomach, Duodenum, Follow through(G.I. Tract)
A Digital Ba-Meal Study of the Stomach, Duodenum, and Follow-Through (G.I. Tract) is an imaging procedure that uses a barium contrast material to evaluate the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The patient swallows the barium, which outlines the stomach, duodenum, and small intestine on X-ray images. The study tracks the barium’s progress through the GI tract, helping to identify issues such as ulcers, tumors, inflammation, or blockages. The follow-through part of the study observes the barium’s movement beyond the duodenum into the small intestine. Preparation typically involves fasting for several hours. Risks include mild discomfort, bloating, constipation, or allergic reactions to the barium.
