This issue devoted to Esophageal Function Testing highlights these
tests that are complimentary to endoscopy and should be considered
after endoscopy is performed. In fact, a prerequisite for
performing many of these studies is a negative endoscopy and thus,
the endoscopist should be well-informed regarding the indication
and utility of these tests. Additionally, some of these newer
technologies require endoscopy to be performed during the study as
the placement or positioning of the measurement tool will require
endoscopic landmarks or direct placement. There have been major
advances in most of these older techniques, and new novel
measurement paradigms have been created that allow for a more
visual and accurate depiction of physiologic and anatomic data.
These technologies have evolved to be more akin to an imaging
technique and thus, the visual display and data acquisition is much
more intuitive and easier to teach to trainees. This review would
be of the utmost importance to readers of GI Endoscospy Clinics.
