Overview
Abdominal x-ray findings that are suggestive for celiac disease include small bowel dilatation, stack of coin appearance, segmentation, mucosal atrophy, and transient intussusception.
X Ray
There are no specific x-ray findings associated with celiac disease. However, an abdominal x-ray may be suggestive for celiac disease with the following findings:
- Small bowel dilatation (increasing with more severe of disease)
- Stack of coins appearance
- Duodenal nodular changes
- Reversal of the ileojejunal fold pattern
- Segmentation
- Hypersecretion and mucosal atrophy (moulage sign)
- Transient intussusception
