Landmark reading alterations in patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux symptoms undergoing diagnostic gastroscopy

ABSTRACT

Background and study aims: There is still a debate about the exact measurement of the oesophagogastric junction and the diaphragmatic hiatus among clinicians. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences between landmark readings of gastroscopy on intubation and extubation, and to correlate these readings with a gastro-oesophageal reflux questionnaire
