Is there a role for dynamic swallowing MRI in the assessment of gastroesophageal reflux disease and oesophageal motility disorders?

Abstract: • Swallowing MRI can assess anatomy and function of the gastroesophageal-junction • Swallowing MRI can help identifying reflux and motility disorders • Definition of the size of hiatal hernias is possible in all three planes in MR. • Short duration of swallowing MRI enables its application in routine clinical practice.

“…With these planes, reflux events can be studied quite well (Fig. 2), and the literature reports a good correlation between 83 and 91% with the DeMeester score in pHmetric studies [16,18]. Other parameters, such as diaphragm-to-sphincter distance, sphincter length, as well as sphincter-transit-time, showed significant differences between healthy volunteers and symptomatic patients [18].…”

“…Dynamic swallowing MRI has become a valuable tool in the assessment of morphological and functional imaging of the esophagus [4,16,18] in patients with typical GERD symptoms. Magnetic resonance swallowing is a noninvasive procedure without ionizing radiation and without the administration of intravenous contrast medium, and thus it could also be used for pediatric or pregnant patients.…”
