Overview
X ray imaging suggestive for associated problems with GERD include free acid reflux, esophagitis with scarring, strictures, and barrett's esophagus.
X-Ray
Barium swallow radiograph
- Barium swallow radiograph is not recommended in diagnosis of GERD.[1]
- Barium swallow chest X ray has low sensitivity. However, it is used to identify associated problems with GERD like esophagitis, esophageal erosions, and ulcers.
- Findings in barium swallow imaging include the following:
