The technique of performing a water soluble contrast enema is virtually identical to that for a single contrast barium enema. Because(1) the goals of the water soluble contrast enema are usually very limited and specific and(2) the colon has not been cleansed of feces, there is no need to take radiographs of every little filling defect. It is often more informative to watch the head of the barium column luoroscopically and take spot images only when pathology is detected. 2, record 2, English, - water%20soluble%20contrast%20enema

Surgical sex reassignment. Genital surgical sex reassignment refers to surgery of the genitalia and/or breasts performed for the purpose of altering the morphology in order to approximate the physical appearance of the genetically-other sex in persons diagnosed as gender dysphoric. Such surgical procedures as mastectomy, reduction mammoplasty, hysterectomy, salpingecytomy, vaginectomy, oophorectomy and phalloplasty-in the absence of any diagnosable birth defect or other medically defined pathology except gender dysphoria, are included in this category labeled surgical sex reassignment.
