What does nonobstructive bowel gas pattern with a physiological stool burden mean on an xray?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: That is radiologist jargon for having a normal appearing bowel on the x-ray. We all have gas in our bowels and a "non obstructive bowel gas pattern" means it looks like it should look. A physiological stool burden means you have a normal amount of stool in your colon. Nothing bad.
