We present the normal sonographic appearances of large and small bowel and the sonographic appearances of
acute appendicitis
, Crohn's disease, celiac disease, intussusception, infectious enteritis, intestinal tuberculosis,
small bowel ileus
and obstruction, small bowel ischemia, and malignant tumors.
