Manufacturer of Enema Tips for Radiology

Runfold Plastics enema tips (colon tubes) are used in barium enema X-ray examination of the large intestine (colon and rectum). Our enema tips are sometimes used in a procedure referred to a Lower Gastrointestinal exam. The procedures are used in conjunction with a Barium Sulfate solution. The colon is filled with a contrast material that contains Barium so the intestine can be seen using X-rays. By pouring the contrast material through the tube attached to the enema tip, which is inserted into the anus, the Barium blocks the X-rays which causes the Barium-filled colon to show clearly on the X-ray picture.

There are two types of Barium enema procedures:

  • Single-Contrast:
    The colon is filled with Barium, which outlines the intestine to show large adnormalities.
  • Double-Contrast:
    The colon is filled with Barium, then the Barium is drained leaving only a thin layer of Barium on the wall of the colon. Then air is pumped into the colon. With the colon inflated, the double-contrast procedure provides a detailed view of the inner surface of the colon; making it easier to see strictures, diverticula and swelling.

Rectal catheters are used for Barium Imaging and other colon procedures.
