A mechanics-based perspective on the pressure-cross-sectional area loop within the esophageal body
Introduction: Plotting the pressure-cross-sectional area (P-CSA) hysteresis loops within the esophagus during a contraction cycle can provide mechanistic insights into esophageal motor function. Pressure and cross-sectional area during secondary peristalsis can be obtained from the functional lumen...
