Abdominal radiography without contrast in foals with outflow obsturction typically rveeals very disticnt enlarged, gas-filled stomach.  Liquid barium contrast will either have markedly delayed (with incomplete obstruction) oir no (complete onsbtruction) outflow. (Sanchez)
+
In foals, abdominal radiography can be used to highlight gastric outflow obstruction.  Liquid barium will demonstrate very delayed or no outflow depending on the degree of obstruction.  Without contrast medium, a large, gas filled stomach will be obvious.<ref name="Sanchez">Sanchez, L.C (2010) 'Diseases Of The Stomach' in Reed, S.M, Bayly, W.M. and Sellon, D.C (2010) '''Equine Internal Medicine''' (Third Edition), Saunders, Chapter 15.</ref>
