Abstract

Our lab has developed a 2-mm-diameter transnasal introduction tube (TNIT) that enables safe and rapid optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging of the upper gastrointestinal tract in unsedated pregnant women. Here, we report our clinical experience with TNIT-based OCT imaging in unsedated pregnant women (n=5) at Mass General Hospital (MGH). Results show that OCT imaging of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum can be safely and effectively conducted in pregnant women with this device.
