THE USE OF A WATER ENEMA IN THE VERIFICATION OF LIPOMA OF THE COLON

G. MELVIN STEVENS M.D.1

1 From the Department of Radiology, Palo Alto Medical Clinic, Palo Alto, California

Two cases are reported which demonstrate the practicality of using a tap water enema and low kilovoltage exposures as a means of confirming the presence of a submucous lipoma of the colon. This combination of contrast and exposure magnifies the small radiation absorption differences of fat and water density tissue. Once identified as a lipoma, more confident and conservative management can be planned.
