Figure 1 Upper panel: Principles of intraluminal impedancometry: the electrical impedance (Z) of a electric field between 2 electrodes is the ratio between applied voltage (U) and resulting current (I). Lower panel: Impedance is non-linearly inversely dependent on bolus diameter and electrical conductivity of luminal content.
