Varghese JC et al. – Radiology plays a critical role in the diagnosis of complications after bariatric surgery. Upper GI contrast study and CT are the most commonly used imaging modalities in this regard.

All other radiological imaging modalities are also used in the diagnosis of complications after bariatric surgery, but much less commonly.
