Abstract Evaluation of the efficacy and adequacy for double-contrast barium enema (DCBE) of a recently described oral lavage solution incorporating anonabsorbable solute (Golytely®) and its comparison with a traditional method of colon cleansing, is reported. Preparation with Golytely® achieved results equal to those of the traditional, more rigorous method with a saving of time and reduction in patient annoyance and without significant alterations in patients' weights and body fluid status.
