-We review how to modify an upper gastrointestinal exam for post-surgical gastric bypass patients. -We will demonstrate the expected appearance for post-operative Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, gastric sleeve, and gastric band procedures. -We will then demonstrate complications that may arise. -Finally, we will review techniques to reduce radiation exposure to levels as low as reasonably achievable.
