Pediatric eosinophilic esophagitis: radiologic findings with pathologic correlation

Conclusion
Because the UGI findings are frequently normal in eosinophilic esophagitis, radiologists need to have a high index of suspicion
for this disease. In children with a strong clinical history, especially impaction in the absence of an esophageal stricture,
endoscopy and biopsy are indicated for further evaluation.
