Written
by leaders in the emerging area of TransNasal Esophagoscopy (TNE), this full-color
atlas is the first comprehensive how-to reference on this technology. The authors
define the indications for the procedure, provide step-by-step instructions on
technique, and describe the full range of anatomy and pathology seen during TNE
examinations. Major sections focus on disease-specific applications of TNE, including
esophagitis, webs and rings, hiatal hernia, Barrett's metaplasia, neoplasia, and
miscellaneous esophageal problems such as foreign bodies, diverticula, caustic
injuries, and varices. More than 100 full-color endoscopic images depict both
normal esophageal anatomy and abnormalities as seen through the endoscope. |
