NORMAL ESOPHAGUS
Aortic
impression
Normal double contrast
esophagram shows coating of
mucosa with barium and air
distention. There are
narrowed areas at the aortic
arch and Diaphragm hiatus.
NORMAL
SWALLOW
ASPIRATION
Contrast tracks anteriorly into
trachea with aspiration.
Aspiration is a problem with patients with CVA
Due to complex neuromuscular requirements of
swallowing.
Also in patients with altered consciousness
Drug overdose/ Alcohol intoxication
ESOPHAGEAL
CANCER
Typical squamous cell carcinoma
Poor prognosis from local
extension into critical mediastinal
structures.
(esophagus lacks a serosa)
NORMAL
ESOPHAGUS
DIAPHRAGM
HIATAL HERNIA
*Note distended
distal esophagus with
herniation of gastric
fundus into chest
through esophageal
hiatus.
DIAPHRAGM
This allows for reflux of gastric
contents into esophagus.
ESOPHAGEAL CANCER
Distal malignancy may be adenocarcinoma due to Barrett’s esophagus - dysplastic change
caused by chronic reflux of gastric contents.
ESOPHAGEAL
VARICES
Linear tubular filling defects represent
distended veins from shunting of blood
from the portal vein to the systemic
circulation due to cirrhosis and portal
hypertension.
CANDIDA
ESOPHAGITIS
Extensive nodular filling defects
in the esophagus in an
immunocompromised patient are
typical for Candida esophagitis.
ESOPHAGEAL
TEAR
Esophagus shows a linear tear of mucosa of
distil esophagus due to vomiting with barium
tracking into the wall.
Full thickness tear or rupture (Boerhaave’s
syndrome) can lead to mediastinitis
and death.

Narrowed pyloric channel
Pyloric Stenosis is seen in newborns within the first months. There is a 4:1 male
ratio and is due to hypertrophied musculature at the pylorus.
PYLORIC STENOSIS
ULTRASOUND is used now more for diagnosis

NORMAL GAS PATTERN
AIR UNDER THE DIAPHRAGM
Perforation of GI tract from ulcer leads to peritonitis and pneumoperitoneum.

ERECT AND DECUBITUS
ABDOMEN FILMS SHOW FREE
AIR UNDER THE DIAPHRAGM.
DECUBITUS
LIVER
Left lateral decubitus (left side dependent) shows air along liver margin. This is
the preferred x-ray if the patient cannot stand.
NORMAL

JEJUNUM
Early contrast is
predominantly in
jejunum and later
predominately in
ileum.

OBSTRUCTION
NON DILATED
BOWEL
Proximal loops are dilated and distal loops are
collapsed indicating an obstruction.
HERNIA
SM. BOWEL
BARIUM STUDY
Note hernia in right lower quadrant on both
exams accounting for obstruction. Hernia is
likely cause if there is no history of prior
surgery.

SUTURES
Symmetric dilation of large and small
bowel is seen normally as a post

CROHN’S DISEASE
Narrowed
distal ileum
due to
chronic
inflammation
is typical for
Crohn’s
disease.

APPENDICOLITH
Occasionally a calculus
(appendicolith) is seen as the
source of appendicitis due to
obstruction of the appendix and
inflammation.
