The diagnosis of esophagitis typically involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, and diagnostic tests. These tests may include:
Endoscopy: A procedure using a thin, flexible tube with a camera to view the esophagus. Barium swallow: An X-ray examination where the patient swallows a barium solution to highlight the esophagus. Biopsy: A small tissue sample taken during endoscopy to check for inflammation or infection.
