“…In order to foster the use of this useful and interesting technique of investigation we have sought to contribute to the solution of the two outstanding difficulties in its general application: first, by developing a method of radiological markers for the estimation of the capsular position within the intestinal tract (Smith and Ridgway, 1961); and secondly, by establishing a technique for the combined recording of pressure and movement or orientational changes. The modification in technique presented in this paper exploits the problem by sometimes allowing the orientational or movement changes to be recorded, as well as the associated pressure change, so enhancing the clinical significance of the results.…”
