Overview
Esophageal stricture is diagnosed based on history of dysphagia and diagnostic studies such as barium esophagography, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, endoscopic ultrasound, manometry.
Diagnostic Study of Choice
- Esophageal stricture is diagnosed based on clinical presentationm such as dysphasia, odynophagia, heartburn. [1][2][3][4]
- There is no single diagnostic study of choice for the diagnosis of esophageal stricture, but it can be diagnosed based on barium esophagography, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, endoscopic ultrasound, and manometry.
Diagnostic Criteria
- There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of esophageal stricture.
