Mean segmental distention scores by colonic segment for each patient position.
Pooled scores from the two readers show that the prone position (red) yields the worst distention on average (higher scores) for all segments except for the rectum, where the supine (blue) is worst. The right lateral decubitus position (green) consistently provides the best distention throughout the colon (p<0.001).
