LINK Abdominal X-ray- an approach
LINK abdominal x-ray interpretation
Indications
Although abdominal radiography has lower sensitivity and specificity than a CT of the abdomen, it still serves a role as an adjunct or optional test. Current uses for abdominal radiography include:
- a preliminary evaluation of bowel gas in an emergent setting
- a negative study in a low pretest probability patient may obviate the need for a CT study and therefore lower radiation dose
- evaluation of radiopaque tubes and lines
- evaluation for radiopaque foreign bodies
- evaluation for postprocedural intraperitoneal/retroperitoneal free gas
- monitoring the amount of bowel gas in postoperative ileus
- monitoring the passage of contrast through the bowel
- colonic transit studies
- monitoring renal calculi
