The aim of the study was to compare a single X\u2010ray radio\u2010opaque marker method with a scintigraphic technique to assess total and segmental colonic transit in patients with STC.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Method\u2002<\/jats:bold> Thirty\u2010one female patients (median age 46\u2003years) with severe constipation and a prolonged or borderline prolonged colonic transit time on radio\u2010opaque marker study were included in the study. They were subsequently investigated with <jats:sup>111<\/jats:sup>Indium\u2010DTPA colonic transit scintigraphy, with a median time between the investigations of 4(range 1\u201327) months. Normal values of healthy female controls were used for comparison.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results\u2002<\/jats:bold> There was no difference between the two methods in terms of prolonged or normal total colonic transit time. Twenty\u2010nine of 31 female patients had a prolonged transit time only in one or two segments on the marker study. On scintigraphy, the transit time was prolonged for patients in the left (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2003&lt;\u20030.05 to <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2003&lt;\u20030.001), but not in the right colon. With respect to prolonged or normal segmental transit time, there was a significant difference between the two methods only in the descending colon (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2003=\u20030.02). However, the results varied considerably for individual patients.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion\u2002<\/jats:bold> Segmental colonic delay was a common finding. The two methods gave similar results for groups of patients, except in the descending colon. The variation of the results for individuals suggests that a repeated transit test may improve the assessment of total and segmental transit.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1463-1318.2006.01153.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,13]],"date-time":"2006-12-13T15:56:25Z","timestamp":1166025385000},"page":"344-351","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["Segmental colonic transit studies: comparison of a radiological and a scintigraphic method"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"E.","family":"Lundin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"W.","family":"Graf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"U.","family":"Garske","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Nilsson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"E.","family":"Maripuu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"U.","family":"Karlbom","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.27.1.41"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","first-page":"612","article-title":"Some parameters of large bowel motility in normal man","volume":"75","author":"Martelli H","year":"1978","journal-title":"Gastroenterology"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02605761"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01537263"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0016-5085(87)90837-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00365528809095938"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00365529850172359"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02236261"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02049695"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02050416"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.39.2.299"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0016-5085(91)90466-X"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.34.3.402"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1463-1318.2004.00694.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0016-5085(86)80004-X"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpedsurg.2003.10.002"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00365520310000410"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02234827"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2982.2002.00304.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_21_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00004836-199806000-00014"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_22_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.1800830520"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_23_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2168.2002.02213.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_24_2","first-page":"775","article-title":"Segmental colectomy in the management of colonic inertia","volume":"64","author":"You YT","year":"1998","journal-title":"Am Surg"}],"container-title":["Colorectal Disease"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fj.1463-1318.2006.01153.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/j.1463-1318.2006.01153.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,6]],"date-time":"2025-04-06T08:48:49Z","timestamp":1743929329000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/j.1463-1318.2006.01153.x"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,12]]},"references-count":23,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2007,5]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/j.1463-1318.2006.01153.x"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/j.1463-1318.2006.01153.x","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1462-8910","1463-1318"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1462-8910","type":"print"},{"value":"1463-1318","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,12]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2006-12-12","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
