Radiological changes of reflux oesophagitis

M S Rabin et al. Clin Radiol. 1979 Mar.

Abstract

Early changes in reflux oesophagitis are difficult to assess on radiological criteria (Torrance, 1973). The later manifestations, particularly with stricture formation, are best assessed by barium swallow. Apart from stricture formation, marked reflux oesophagitis with coarsened folds may lead to a mistaken diagnosis of varices or carcinoma. The various radiological appearances that have been encountered are described.
