Digital Barium Swallow of Oesophagus

A Digital Barium Swallow of the Esophagus is an imaging procedure used to assess the esophagus. The patient swallows a barium contrast medium, which coats the walls of the esophagus, making it visible on X-ray images. This study helps diagnose conditions such as dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), reflux, strictures, tumors, or other abnormalities of the esophagus. The procedure provides a dynamic view of the swallowing process, allowing the physician to observe the movement of the barium. Preparation typically involves fasting for several hours. Risks are minimal but may include mild discomfort or an allergic reaction to the barium.
