The authors present a technique of preparation for double contrast barium enema, using the oral route only. It was used in 100 consecutive, suitable non-hospitalised patients with the following results: colonic empyting was perfect in 64% of cases, satisfactory in 25% and inadequate in 11%. Tolerance was deemed to be good. The authors do not suggest that the technique should be used in hospitalised patients, often proving inadequate under such circumstances.
