[Gastroscopy in the rat].
A method is described for gastroscopic examination of the rat using a flexible bronchoscope. Endoscopy is performed under ether anesthesia and endotracheal intubation. Gastroscopies of 400 animals demonstrated, that this method is simple, highly sensitive and specific, and carries a low risk. It seems to be well suited for use in experimental gastroenterology.
