Overview
Fluoroscopy barium studies rarely used in diagnosis of ischemic colitis. Contrast enema is abnormal in 90% of patients but is rarely used for diagnostic purposes.
Other imaging findings
Fluoroscopy barium studies may be used in diagnosis of ischemic colitis. Contrast enema is abnormal in 90% of patients but is rarely used for diagnostic purposes. The findings are:
- Segmental region of abnormality
- Thumbprinting which is classically obliterated by air insufflation
- Spasm
- Ulcerations serrated mucosa
- Stricture from fibrosis as a late complication of ischemia[1]
