RADIOGRAPHIC AND ENDOSCOPIC PROCEDURES IN GASTROENTEROLOGY
Over the past few years a wide variety of techniques have been introduced in radiology for the detection of disease in the gastrointestinal tract. There has been a concomitant explosion of new endoscopic techniques designed to address many of the same diagnostic (and therapeutic) problems.
