Further advances in the ability to diagnose GER disease by use of ambulatory pH monitoring have unveiled a host of extraesophageal manifestations of GERD. These include pulmonary symptoms of asthma, recurrent pneumonia, cough or bronchitis, and infant apnea. Many of these symptoms may be the sole presentations of GER in these patients. It is important that the clinician is aware of these atypical presentations of GERD. The expanding use of ambulatory pH monitoring is helping to clarify the underlying pathophysiology of these disorders as well as to improve the ability to diagnose the atypical manifestations of GERD.

We extend existing techniques by using generative adversarial network (GAN) models to reduce the appearance of cast shadows in radiographs across various age groups. We retrospectively collected 11,500 adult and paediatric wrist radiographs, evenly divided between those with and without casts. The test subset consisted of 750 radiographs with cast and 750 without cast.
