OR

[Imaging modality] may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an [imaging modality] suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].

Other Imaging Findings

• There are no other imaging findings associated with [disease name].
• Barium esophagography
• Endoscopic ultrasound for detection local invasion in malignant causes
• Ct scan for staging malignant strictures
• Manometry in cases of esophageal stricture due to dysmotility
• Chest radiography PA and lateral for esophageal stricture due to extrinsic compression
• 24 hour esophageal PH monitoring: This study may be helpful in evaluating and documenting the adequacy of therapy in patients who remain symptomatic despite treatment with PPIs or fundoplication.
• Esophageal manometry for detection esophageal dysmotility as a cause of esophageal strciture
