Barium Swallow X-ray Findings
(Images shown below are courtesy of RadsWiki)
Eosinophilic esophagitis
- X-ray findings are as follows:[1][2][3]
- Barium studies cannot diagnose EoE but are helpful in identifying any underlying anatomical abnormalities such as strictures, rings, etc.
- They also help to rule out the other causes of dysphagia.
- The barium swallow of the esophagus shows multiple rings associated with EoE.
Reflux esophagitis
- Barium swallow radiograph is not recommended in diagnosis of reflux esophagitis.[4]
- Barium swallow chest X ray has low sensitivity. However, it is used to identify esophagitis, esophageal erosions, and ulcers.
- Findings in barium swallow imaging include the following:
- Free acid reflux
- Oesophagitis with scarring
- Strictures
