With the fluoroscopein a thin individual it is interesting to watchthe peristalsis of the duodenum outlined bythe barium in the folds of the rugae againstthe bag of roentgenolucent air.

After removing the tube fromthis same patient we noted with the fluoro-scope that the bowel seemed less active inpassing the barium along. The advantagesthat we hope to realize are: 1. Better filling of the duodenum for thepurpose of diagnosing ulcer, diverticulum,adhesions, tumor masses, etc. 2. Combination of gastric analysis and duodenal analysis with the roentgen exam-ination so that a tube will have to be swal-lowed only once. 3. Examination of the duodenum through-out the entire length without the disadvant-age
