In a consecutive series of 299 routine double-contrast studies of the colon, X-ray films were examined prospectively for remaining stool in the colon. In 47%, the radiological diagnosis was restricted by stool. There was no statistic significant difference in patient's sex and age, and also none in the abnormal radiological findings compared to the group with good cleaning. The results elucidate important steps in preparing the patient for a clean colon: (1) the necessity of the radiologist being active in the preparation. (2) Written instructions and explanations must be given to every patient. (3) Regular motivation of the physicians and nursing teams is essential. Only a clean colon ensures early detection of colorectal polyps and efficient prevention of colorectal cancer.
