This excerpt was created in the absence of an abstract.

With the steady advance of endoscopic techniques from both ends of the alimentary tract, radiologists are turning their attention to the relatively neglected portion in between; the small intestine. As a result, a number of books have appeared in recent years, and a new addition to these ranks is this elegant publication by Antes and Eggemann. The authors are champions of the double contrast technique and in particular favour the use of high density barium together with a methyl cellulose suspension in order to gain the double contrast effect.
