Abstract

This study was done at 45 medical facilities located in Seoul. The purpose of study is twofold. First, this is to investigate usually who extmines patients for UGI and how many films are used for the examination. Secondly, this is to evaluate image qualities of UGI in terms of representation of lesser curvatures, amount of Ba and air and other criteria for the exam. The results are as follows : 1. In most cases, the UGI is examined by the Dr(67%), by the RT(22%), and together(11%). 2. The total films used ranged from 5 sheets(42%) to 7 sheets(18%). 3. The amount of Ba given to Pt. was mostly $200{\sim}300\;ml$(60%) and gastrografin was used $3{\sim}4\;g$(86.6%) for the examination. 4. For the evaluation of qualities, lack of representation of lesser curvature was 86.7%, lack of Ba and air and bubble formation was 62%, 46.7% and 42.2% respectively.
