Five hundred examinations, including 191 esophagoscopic and 182 duodenoscopic examinations were performed on 421 patients with fiberoptic endoscopes. Diagnoses determined by X-ray and gastroscopic examination were compared and the fibergastroscope was shown to be superior in the demonstration of gastric ulcers. We feel that the fiberendoscopic examination of the upper gastrointestinal tract complements and extends the information gained from radiologic examination.

“…Despite these early optimistic predictions, the ACMI Hirschowitz FO-4990 gastroduodenoscope proved less than ideal in its ability to pass the pylorus into the duodenum. One article 16 in the American Journal of Digestive Diseases in 1966 stated that they had been "unable to enter the duodenum with certainty in any examination" in 1000 fiberscope examinations. Others believed that the endoscope may have been too big and bulky or that it was too flexible.…”

“…For example, in 1966, Norman Cohen published in the American Journal of Digestive Diseases his experience with 1,000 gastroscopies using a fiberoptic endoscope. Despite an impressive experience, he still was ''unable to ender the duodenum with certainty in any examination'' [4]. Barriers to entering the duodenum included the relatively short length of the endoscope and the lack of tip deflection.…”
