Fig. 3. Assessment of esophagogastric junction (EGJ) contractility by EGJ contractile integral (EGJ-CI). For measurement EGJ-CI, upper and lower margins of the EGJ are enclosed in a DCI tool box for 3 consecutive respiratory cycles. The resulting DCI value is then divided by the duration of the 3 respiratory cycles (in seconds).
