A PhysioMechanical model of esophageal function in eosinophilic esophagitis

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is characterized by eosinophilic inflammation, but also heterogeneous presentations involving fibrostenotic esophageal remodeling and esophageal dysmotility. We aimed to define and evaluate phenotypes of EoE using functional lumen imaging probe (FLIP) Panometry, i.e. a PhysioMechanical Classification of EoE.
