Additional Information for Modified Barium Sulfate For Suspension
Modified Barium Sulfate For Suspension is a type of contrast agent used in medical imaging procedures, specifically in radiographic examinations of the gastrointestinal tract. It is commonly used in procedures such as barium swallow, barium enema, and upper gastrointestinal series.
Modified Barium Sulfate For Suspension is a white, odorless powder that is mixed with water to form a suspension. It is administered orally to the patient, allowing the radiologist to visualize the structure and function of the esophagus, stomach, and intestines during the imaging procedure.
The suspension contains barium sulfate, which is a radiopaque substance. This means that it does not allow X-rays to pass through, resulting in a clear contrast between the barium-filled organs and the surrounding tissues. This contrast helps the radiologist to identify any abnormalities or diseases in the gastrointestinal tract, such as ulcers, tumors, strictures, or blockages.
Modified Barium Sulfate For Suspension is classified under the supply class Drugs And Biologicals in the supply group Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies. It is typically supplied in pre-packaged containers or bottles, ready for reconstitution with water before administration.
It is important to note that the use of Modified Barium Sulfate For Suspension should be done under the guidance and supervision of a healthcare professional, as it involves radiation exposure and may have potential side effects or contraindications for certain individuals.
