==Indications==
FLIP may be used for several indications to evaluate esophageal symptoms, such as dysphagia, chest pain, or regurgitation, or to assess response to treatment. FLIP is used to evaluate for esophageal motility disorders, such as [[achalasia]], [[diffuse esophageal spasm]], etc.<ref name=Savarino>{{cite journal |last1=Savarino |first1=E |last2=di Pietro |first2=M |last3=Bredenoord |first3=AJ |last4=Carlson |first4=DA |last5=Clarke |first5=JO |last6=Khan |first6=A |last7=Vela |first7=MF |last8=Yadlapati |first8=R |last9=Pohl |first9=D |last10=Pandolfino |first10=JE |last11=Roman |first11=S |last12=Gyawali |first12=CP |title=Use of the Functional Lumen Imaging Probe in Clinical Esophagology. |journal=The American Journal of Gastroenterology |date=November 2020 |volume=115 |issue=11 |pages=1786–1796 |doi=10.14309/ajg.0000000000000773 |pmid=33156096|doi-access=free }}</ref> FLIP may be used as a complementary or alternative to esophageal manometry for evaluating esophageal outflow obstructive disorders, including achalasia. FLIP may be used as a complementary test for barium esophagram for evaluating esophageal outflow obstructive disorders. FLIP may be used to assess the effect of treatment for achalasia.
FLIP measurements may be used to guide intraoperative reflux surgery, or to assess the degree of fibrostenotic disease from eosinophilic esophagitis.<ref name=Savarino /><ref name=Hirano>{{cite journal |last1=Hirano |first1=I |last2=Pandolfino |first2=JE |last3=Boeckxstaens |first3=GE |title=Functional Lumen Imaging Probe for the Management of Esophageal Disorders: Expert Review From the Clinical Practice Updates Committee of the AGA Institute. |journal=Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology |date=March 2017 |volume=15 |issue=3 |pages=325–334 |doi=10.1016/j.cgh.2016.10.022 |pmid=28212976|pmc=5757507 }}</ref> FLIP may be used to guide endoscopic dilation of esophageal strictures.<ref name=Savarino />
