Abstract

Background: The colon in loop (CIL) examination at the Radiology Department of RSPAU Dr. Suhardi Hardjolukito employs the following projections: single-contrast AP, lateral, RPO, and LPO, followed by double-contrast AP, RPO, LPO, and post-evacuation AP. The procedure utilizes water-soluble contrast media without the use of a balloon to secure the catheter. Methods: This study adopts a qualitative approach using a case study method. Subjects include one radiology specialist and three radiographers. The research was conducted from August 2024 to September 2025. Data were collected through direct observation, interviews, and documentation, followed by data processing, analysis, and conclusion drawing. Results: Findings from the Radiology Department of RSPAU Dr. Suhardi Hardjolukito indicate that the use of water-soluble contrast media is safer for patients at risk of perforation, as it is easily absorbed by the body and carries a low risk of complications. Additionally, the use of a catheter without a balloon proves effective, as it does not interfere with rectal visualization and reduces the risk of irritation or excessive pressure in the area. Conclusion: The CIL examination using water-soluble contrast media and a catheter without a balloon is a safe and effective method, especially for patients suspected of having a risk of perforation. The choice of contrast media should be tailored to the patient's clinical condition, and the use of fluoroscopy is recommended to enhance efficiency and accuracy in the examination procedure.

Abstract

Radiographic examination of the wrist plays a crucial role in diagnosing fractures, particularly in traumatic cases, and requires precise projection selection, proper immobilization, and adequate radiation protection to obtain high-quality diagnostic images. In theory, wrist radiography commonly includes anteroposterior (AP) and lateral projections; however, observations at the Radiology Installation of RSU PKU Muhammadiyah Delanggu showed that fracture examinations are generally limited to posteroanterior (PA) and lateral projections. This difference highlights a gap between theoretical recommendations and clinical practice, as several references emphasize the importance of projection variation to enhance diagnostic accuracy. This study aimed to describe the wrist joint radiographic examination procedures for fracture cases at RSU PKU Muhammadiyah Delanggu and to examine the immobilization techniques applied during the procedure. A descriptive qualitative design with a case study approach was used, conducted from May to June 2025. The subjects included three radiographers, while the object of study was wrist radiography in fracture cases. Data were obtained through direct observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed descriptively. The findings showed that PA and lateral projections were consistently used, with immobilization achieved using sandbags and foam pads to ensure stability and minimize motion artifacts. Radiation protection was implemented through lead aprons, collimation, and appropriate exposure adjustments. Overall, the procedures followed established radiography guidelines, particularly the Bontrager standard, ensuring both diagnostic quality and patient safety.
