Data are presented however demonstrating a pathogenic role of mould fungus allergens in these diseases. Diagnostic and therapeutic implications of these results are discussed.

The advantages of the Shirakabe double-contrast method are well known. Nevertheless, the time involved to conduct the technique and the methods eliminate it from use as a standard examination technique. It is desirable to look for a practicable modification which can be used routinely in the medical practice. The above report deals with this problem.
