Gastroptosis can be diagnosed by physical examination, X-ray barium examination and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
1. Physical examination The
doctor can determine whether gastroptosis exists by observing the shape of the patient's abdomen, measuring height and abdominal circumference.
2. X-ray barium examination After the
examinee uses a liquid containing barium, observe the flow of barium in the stomach and intestinal tract under X-ray to determine whether gastroptosis exists.
3. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy
A slender mirror is inserted into the patient's stomach to directly observe the condition of the gastric mucosa and help observe whether gastroptosis exists.
