Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Rate of appendix localization on ultrasound is not high. We suggest a way to improve it's localization by oral administration of iodinated contrast material.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The administration of oral iodinated contrast material might facilitate identification of the appendix and accurate diagnosis of appendicitis. When indicated will shorten time to CT examination.
