JorVet GI Magic Beads. Is that a GI foreign body or not? Liquid Barium is useful for diagnosing suspected GI foreign bodies on radiographs. However, partial obstruction can be difficult to interpret on radiographs even with barium. The use of radiographic markers before barium administration can be really useful in suspected foreign bodies, invasive neoplasia, or gastric motility disorders such as Heus. Radiograph markers are:
Radiopaque small beads of 1.5mm and 4.7mm diameter
Stainless noncorrosive inert material
Readily pass through normal GI tract
Beads are packaged in small gelatin capsules for ease of administration
Considerably less expensive than Barium impregnated polystyrene beads
Keep in clinic ready to go when that emergency case presents itself
Small pack for cats and small dogs.
Each dose consists of 2 smaller gelatin capsules with 30 x 1.5mm beads and 10 x 4.7mm beads.
