FAQs

What is Small Bowel Enema Tubeless (Enteroclysis)?

Small Bowel Enema Tubeless (Enteroclysis) is a contrast-enhanced X-ray examination of the small intestine in which oral contrast material is used instead of a tube placed through the nose. It helps evaluate the structure and function of the small bowel.

Why is Small Bowel Enema Tubeless (Enteroclysis) performed?

This examination is commonly performed to investigate persistent abdominal pain, chronic diarrhea, unexplained weight loss, malabsorption, Crohn's disease, bowel obstruction, intestinal strictures, small bowel tumors, ulcers, and other disorders affecting the small intestine.

Which parts of the digestive system are examined?

The examination evaluates the duodenum, jejunum, ileum, and the entire small intestine, assessing the bowel lining, shape, and movement of contrast through the bowel.

How is Tubeless Enteroclysis different from conventional Enteroclysis?

Unlike conventional enteroclysis, which requires a tube to be passed through the nose into the small intestine, the tubeless technique uses orally administered contrast, making the procedure more comfortable for most patients.

Can it detect tumors or polyps in the small intestine?

Yes. It may reveal tumors, polyps, abnormal masses, or irregularities of the small bowel. Additional imaging or endoscopic evaluation may be recommended if needed.
