Axial Movements and Length Changes of the Human Lower Esophageal Sphincter During Respiration and Distension-induced Secondary Peristalsis Using Functional Luminal Imaging Probe

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Efficient transport through the esophago-gastric junction (EGJ) requires synchronized circular and longitudinal muscle contraction of the esophagus including relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES). However, there is a scarcity of technology for measuring esophagus moveme...
