What is the word(s) in spanish for Barium meal,a procedure used to diagnose stomach ulcers

Answer 1

Health site in Spanish from Bermuda

"Serie gastrointestinal [GI] superior, esofagografía, tránsito esofágico" is listed for "Upper GI Series; Barium Swallow; Barium Meal"--- none is a direct translation of "barium meal".

for the actual solution you drink: "solución de bario"

I have never encountered the term "barium meal", always using "Upper GI" or "barium swallow" for the actual test- hopefully one of the above names works for what you are looking for. I am not sure whether with barium meal you are actually looking for a term for food laced with barium as part of a swallowing evaluation, or if it is simply another name for the standard test involving swallowing a cup of barium before x-rays.
