German term

Kolon-DK-Untersuchung

German to English Medical Medical (general) Innere Medizin
Arztbericht über eine Kolonoskopie. Der Patient hat ein Colon elongatum und deshalb ist das Endoskop nicht lang genug, um den Ascendens einzusehen. Um das letzte Stück auch noch zu untersuchen empfiehlt der Arzt eine Kolon-DK-Untersuchung. Ich habe für "DK" nur Dauerkatheter gefunden, aber das scheint hier keinen Sinn zu machen.

Wie immer, sehr dankbar für Eure Hilfe!

double-contrast examination/study of the colon

"Doppelkontrast" könnte das sein;

"double contrast barium enema" habe ich in diesem Zusammenhang auch gefunden.

Since the description of the technic for double-contrast examination of the colon by Fischer (1) in 1923, barium sulfate, with or without the addition of various other agents, has been the chief medium used in such studies.

Double contrast barium enema

There are many procedures that can identify abnormalities in the colon. A double contrast barium enema uses a silver-white compound called barium to outline the colon and rectum on an x-ray. Normally, soft tissues x-ray very poorly, but the barium coating reveals a clear outline of the colon. While the double contrast barium enema is not as comprehensive as the colonoscopy, it is a very useful tool to help diagnose many colorectal issues.Barium enemas are low risk procedures, which are less invasive and often more affordable than a colonoscopy.
Example sentence:

Double contrast barium enema (DCBE) technique is a method of imaging the colon with fluoroscopy. "
