Overview
The two most sensitive and specific tests used in confirming the clinical suspicion and in diagnosing Dumping syndrome. They are the oral glucose tolerance test and the Hydrogen breath test.
Diagnostic Study of Choice
Study of choice:
- Oral glucose tolerance test is the ideal study of choice for the diagnosis of early dumping syndrome and late dumping syndrome.
- A mixed-meal tolerance test is the study of choice for the diagnosis of late dumping syndrome.
