Panel A represents images of normal peristalsis
and the three subtypes of achalasia using high resolution manometry. The HRM
catheter is pictured
in
the drawing positioned through the esophagus and into the stomach. Panel
B are
FLIP panometry correlates of the HRM images demonstrating normal peristalsis and the subtypes of achalasia. The FLIP catheter is also pictured in the
