Assessment of Esophageal High-Resolution Impedance Manometry in Patients with Nonobstructive Dysphagia

open access: yesGastroenterology Research and Practice, 2018
Background. High-resolution impedance manometry (HRIM) can calculate the bolus motion parameters and the ratio of complete esophageal transit besides the conventional esophageal dynamic parameters; therefore, we could better manage the patients with ...
