Atony 31 blobs which drop to the lowest point, like tar fallingthrough water, showing that there is already some food inthe lower part of the stomach keeping the walls apart, andthrough which the bismuth food sinks. Fallacies in the diagnosis of atony. That the bismuth shadow only outlines the lowest part ofthe stomach after a time does not necessarily indicate loss oftone, for it must be remembered that the stomach itself will besecreting juice, which, being lighter than the bismuth food,will consequently rise above it.
