OBJECTIVE: We describe the key sonographic features and technical aspects of assessment of bowel disorders in adults. CONCLUSION: Initial imaging with transabdominal sonography in the radiologic evaluation of bowel disease in adults often is reserved for patients with equivocal historical, physical, and laboratory findings related to the gastrointestinal tract. Because of technologic advances and accumulated experience in interpretation of the images, sonography yields substantial information about gastrointestinal disorders.
