Jim is a truck driver who is on the road for long hours. He admits to eating “unhealthy” foods and often stops at fast food restaurants after his late shifts, choosing cheeseburgers, French fries, and pizza most often. He does not drink alcohol because his job requires him to drive at a moment’s notice, but he does drink coffee throughout the day to keep awake during his odd hours. He has a history of intermittent heartburn, but the chest pain is getting more frequent and more severe, so he decides to seek treatment. After two weeks, the OTC medication Jim tried isn’t helping, so his doctor wants to perform a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses a light and camera to look for inflammation inside the esophagus and test for Barrett’s esophagus. What is this procedure called?   Ambulatory acid probe test   Esophageal manometry   Upper endoscopy   Colonoscopy
