Current imaging options
X-Ray
US
CT
MRI
NM (including PET-CT)
Invasive angiography
X-Ray
Non-contrast X-Ray
(peritoneal air detection in perforation,
air-fluid levels in bowel obstruction,
calcifications – tumors, parasites,
infection, stones)
Barium swallow&barium enema
Biliary system&GB imaging by peroral
and intravenous contrast administration,
ERCP
Conventional radiograph -
pneumoperitoneum
Conventional Radiograph – Normal gas distribution
and air-fluid levels in overinflated
bowel loops, caused by bowel obstruction
Conventional radiograph - Calcifications
Contrast X-Ray modalities of GI
tract. HPB system and Spleen
GI tract X-Ray study principle – complete and partial
filling, double and triple contrast
X-Ray Patterns of GI Tract
Pathology
Dislocation
X-Ray Patterns of GI Tract
mucosa Pathology
Pathologic Changes of Mucosa
X-Ray Patterns of GI Tract and
tubular structure Pathology
Dilation
X-Ray Syndroms of GI Tract and
tubular structure Pathology
Narrowing
Intravenous contrast for GB and bile ducts
ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde
Cholangiopancreatography)
Sesveneba
Ultrasound
Very Informative
Relatively Cheap
Non-Invasive
Ultrasound of GI Tract,
HPB system and Spleen
pathology
B-mode and Doppler studies
(Spectral, Color, Power Doppler)
Stomach before&after water
administration – 5 wall layers
Antrum – before and after
fluid administration
Jejunum – possibility of
peristalsis monitoring
Defects of gastric mucosa - Ulcer
Exophytic Gastric Masses

CT of GI tract, HPB system and
Spleen
Intavenous and peroral contrast might be
used
Detailed cross-sectional anatomy might be
assessed
Contrast might be injected via drainage
catheters

Liver-Spleen scan – Tc-99m or sulfur colloid.
Normal liver/spleen scans
Liver-Spleen scan – Tc-99m or sulfur colloid. Ubnormal
liver/spleen scan in patient with liver cirrhosis – note the
small liver size and radiopharmaceutical shift to the bone
marrow and spleen
Hepatobiliary NM imaging – TC-99m –labeled
iminodiacdetic acid compunds – Tc disofenin or
Tc-mebrofenin. Normal hepatobiliary scan
Hepatobiliary NM imaging . Acute cholecystitis – the GB
never fills. Acute inflammation indicating “Hot rim”
around GB fossa is seen, when liver clears
PET-CT – patient with a history of colon cancer with poor
response to chemo. Large liver met with central necrosis and
2 smaller methastasis are revealed

Diagnosis of GI tract
diseases
Esohagus - primary and secondary achalasia
Scirrhous carcinoma
Malignant gastric lesions - lymphoma
Malignant gastric lesions - GIST.
Adenocarcinoma of jejunum
Diagnosis of small bowel pathology small bowel
mass lesions - lymphoma
Normal mucosa
Bowel obstruction
Diagnosis of large bowel pathology - mass lesions (polyps)
Diagnosis of large bowel pathology - mass lesions
(colorectal adenocarcinoma)
Diagnosis of large bowel pathology - ulcerative
