Abstract

Physical examination of the esophagus is easily and quickly accomplished, and gives information which is invaluable in routine screening for esophageal disease. It is an ancient technic which has been neglected in spite of the fact that it offers a simple and rather effective means for detecting carcinoma during the prepatent and curable stage.
