A member asked:
Im 18 and i had an egd, the pictures show that my gastric body,antrum, cardia, and fundus are very dark in color. what would cause that? samples taken
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The color of the: stomach can vary depending on the settings used during the endoscopy. I wouldn't read too much into a darkly colored stomach. The biopsies should give all the information needed.
