The benign and the malignanthour-glass stomach differ entirely in filling phenomena from the normalstomach. The Motility of the Stomach.—Definite conclusion as to the motility ofthe stomach can be arrived at from the study of the swaying intensity andform of the peristaltic waves, and the time required for the opaque meal topass, when combined with the information given by the shape, position, andform of the residue remaining in the stomach. These peristaltic waves canbe shown on the fluorescent screen. The late Dr. Leonard showed that thereis a constant change in the length and breadth of the stomach during every. ^^^^ ^^^^^^H |P % _ Bi ^ j^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ r
