ABSTRACT
Forty-six patients with suspected esophageal disease were studied by tube esophagography. This was performed by positioning a rubber tube in the proximal esophagus, followed by swallowing of high density barium suspension and insufflation of air through the tube. Comparison in 20 cases showed superiority of tube study over conventional double contrast barium, with alteration in diagnosis in six cases and additional information in 14 cases. Tube esophagogram is a safe, simple and valuable adjunctive technique leading to accurate and definitive radiological diagnosis of esophageal disease.
