Graft versus host disease: Findings on plain abdominal radiography
Clinical Radiology, 1988The plain abdominal radiographs of 31 patients who had undergone bone marrow transplantation were reviewed retrospectively to determine the radiological abnormalities caused by intestinal graft versus host disease. Abnormal radiological signs were observed in 95% of patients with acute graft versus host disease but none were sufficiently characteristic

Abdominal radiography in the emergency department: A prospective analysis
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1982We present a prospective analysis of 100 consecutive abdominal radiographs of 96 emergency patients who were referred to radiology with a variety of abdominal complaints. In patients with diffuse, nonspecific abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, or gastrointestinal bleeding, 98% of the radiographs were negative or had positive findings which were ...

Abdominal radiography is not necessary in children with intussusception
Pediatric Surgery International, 2015Children with intussusception require rapid and accurate diagnosis to enable timely intervention for satisfactory outcome. Ultrasonography is the recommended standard diagnostic modality; however, abdominal radiography (AR) is still used as an initial investigation.

Rationalising abdominal radiography in the accident and emergency department
Clinical Radiology, 1980A retrospective analysis is presented of 100 consecutive patients attending an accident department and referred for abdominal radiography. In general the reasons for requesting supine films appeared sound. Five per cent of referrals were for haematemesis which is not a valid reason for plain radiography.

To compare the diagnostic yield of abdominal radiography with that of computed tomography (CT) in adult patients presenting to the emergency department with nontraumatic abdominal pain.Records of 1,000 consecutive patients presenting to the emergency department with acute abdominal pain from April to June 1998 were retrospectively reviewed.

Patient-controlled abdominal compression method in radiography
2019Aims and objectives: In radiography, optimized methods like compression should be used [1, 2]. The image quality improves with compression because soft tissue is displaced sideways. This reduces the radiation dose and scattered radiation is decreased [2].

Indications for plain abdominal radiography in the emergency department
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1986Despite the proliferation of new imaging methods, plain abdominal radiographs remain the first films ordered in a significant number of emergency department patients. Several small studies suggest that abdominal films are ordered unnecessarily. Over-ordering takes two forms: inappropriate indications and poor choice of the number and/or types of views ...

Diabetes mellitus. I: Routine plain abdominal radiography.
East African medical journal, 1992The plain abdominal radiographs of 43 consecutive diabetic patients were studied. Disordered bowel motility which was unrelated to the severity of the diabetes mellitus occurred in 76.7% while artheriosclerosis occurred in 65%. Only 7% (3 patients) had pancreatic calcification; of these, one was a complication of urinary schistosomiasis (Schistosoma ...
