Overview
Other diagnostic study for esophageal stricture include esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) for detection malignant causes . Manometry is used in cases of esophageal stricture due to dysmotility.
Other Diagnostic Studies
Esophagogastroduodenoscopy and manometry are other diagnostic studies that can be used in the diagnosis of esophageal stricture. [1][2]
- Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is done for staging suspicious malignant causes that were diagnosed in barium esophagogram.
- Manometry is used in cases of esophageal stricture due to dysmotility.
