What can gastrointestinal fluoroscopy detect?

Gastrointestinal fluoroscopy generally refers to barium meal fluoroscopy, which can check the lesion site of the gastrointestinal tract of the examinee. Usually, the main component of barium meal is barium sulfate, which will not react in gastric acid. After drinking, the examinee can adhere to the surface of gastrointestinal mucosa. However, due to the special structure of ulcer surface and other lesion tissues, barium sulfate cannot adhere. The shadow site displayed during imaging is the lesion site. Clinically, this item is usually used to check the pathological changes of stomach, duodenum, small intestine, colon, appendix, etc., such as ulcer, tumor, inflammation, polyp, etc.
