2 Fig 1 An AP abdominal radiograph after PEG tube placement with an injection of 240mL of air. The tube can be seen projecting left of the midlumbar spine with a loop to the right and crossing the greater curvature of the stomach. The stomach is distended with air, and the balloon, near the tip of the tube, is noticeably outlined with air within the lumen of the stomach.
