Overview
Features of small bowel barium studies are not sensitive enough for definite diagnosis, but the following changes may be seen: Small intestinal dilatation due to excess fluid, dilution of contrast, multiple non-obstructing intussusceptions, jejunoileal fold pattern reversal, moulage sign, mosaic pattern, flocculation, and segmentation.
