Physiology & Medicine / What is the risk posed by ionising radiation exposure during a barium enema?
« on: 28/06/2004 10:12:23 »
Please please please can you advise me. I am due to have a barium enema but my symptoms and pain are all in the upper area around my stomach/liver/gallbladder/pancreas. One symptom is loose stools which I suspect is malabsorption. Can you tell me what the radiation risk will be if they find nothing on the large bowel x-rays then decide I need an upper GI series as well?
Thanks so much.
Judy.
