Effect of intragastric barostat bag on proximal and distal gastric accomodation in response to liquid meal

The barostat is the gold standard for measurement of proximal gastric accommodation, and ultrasonography can be used to measure gastric volume. Mundt, Hausken, and Samsom investigate the effects of the barostat bag on gastric accommodation and transpyloric flow.
