Project Details

Description

The purpose of this grant proposal is to determine the accuracy of the EREFS for esophageal remodeling and identify the potential clinical relevance of EREFS in terms of patient outcomes. Specific Aims are (i) Determine the accuracy of EREFS for esophageal remodeling in adults with EoE by correlation with esophageal distensibility metrics on functional luminal imaging probe (FLIP) (ii) Identify clinical correlates of EREFS in adults with EoE by means of correlation with patient reported symptom outcomes and patient reported quality of life.
