Dysphagia: Novel and Emerging Diagnostic Modalities. Among recent advances in diagnostics for dysphagia and esophageal motility disorders is the update to the Chicago Classification (version 4.0) for interpretation of high-resolution manometry (HRM) and diagnosis of esophageal motility disorders. The update incorporates application of complementary testing strategies during HRM, such as provocative HRM maneuvers, and recommendation for barium esophagram or functional luminal imaging probe (FLIP) panometry to help clarify inconclusive HRM findings. FLIP panometry also represents an emerging technology for evaluation of esophageal distensibility and motility at the time of endoscopy.
