A member asked:
What tests other than endoscopy can be done for digestive problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends.: The term digestive problems is quite vague so it is hard to answer your question with anything other than generalities. A ct scan, esophageal manometry, ph probe, barium swallow, small bowel follow through, gastric emptying study, etc.
