Stenosis of the Small Intestine

This image illustrates the mechanical contraction of a small intestine. A section of the small intestine is represented, with half the lumen with contractions and the other half empty due to a stenosis hindering passage of bowel content. The stenosis is shown as a thickening of the intestinal wall both superior and inferior, resulting in the bowel content being unable to pass this area.
