An example of the proper way to use dilatation would be, the small bowel obstruction resulted in dilatation of the proximal small bowel. Most times, dilation is what you are looking for.

And it is quite obvious you dont have ANY patience...so why bother posting? sm
As a newbie I greatly appreciate anyone who is willing to give their time and knowledge to help me, or any newbie, out. What I dont understand is why people with no patience and an obvious knack for being rude come to these boards and post when clearly they have no intention of helping anyone.
Again, I thank all of the "oldies" who offer help and kindness to the "newbies".
