Overview

Other diagnostic studies for esophageal stricture include endoscopic ultrasound and esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) for detection malignant causes . Manometry is used in cases of esophageal stricture due to dysmotility. finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3], and [diagnostic study 2], which demonstrates [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].

Other Diagnostic Studies

Endoscopic ultrasound, esophagogastroduodenoscopy and manometry are other diagnostic studies that can be used in the diagnosis of esophageal stricture. [1][2][3]

  • Endoscopic ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of esophageal stricture due to malignant causes. It can detect local invasion in malignant causes.
