How long do special x-ray studies (barium studies etc.) take to perform?
This varies with the exam. Upper G.I. exams of the esophagus and stomach are often completed in 10 to 15 minutes. Barium enema exams may take 30 to 45 minutes to finish. Examinations of the small bowel require unpredictable amounts of time. Some patients are finished in two hours time while others will need to have pictures taken at varying intervals throughout the day. Myelogram exams are often completed in 30 minutes but patients are required to remain in hospital for several hours afterward for observation.
