Which of the following UGI projections positions will best demonstrate barium in the body and pylorus of the stomach?

positioning UGI.

What is the best position to demonstrate duodenal loop?

Digestive System -- UGI.

What is the position of the stomach in a Hypersthenic patient?

Heavily build hypersthenic individuals with short thorax and long abdomen are likely to have stomach that is placed in higher position and more transversally. In persons with a slender asthenic physique, the stomach is located lower and more vertical.

What position best demonstrates a hiatal hernia?

An upper GI barium series is the definitive method of diagnosing hiatal hernias (see the image below). A single-contrast barium swallow performed with the patient in the prone position is more likely to demonstrate a sliding hiatal hernia than an upright double-contrast examination.
