1. A system for displaying a representation of esophageal operation of a subject comprising:

  • a display device;

    an interface capable of receiving esophageal impedance and pressure measurements; and

    a processing system in communication with said display device, said interface, and an esophageal operation model, with said processing system configured to receive a plurality of impedance values detected at a first plurality of spaced-apart esophageal locations, receive a plurality of pressure values detected at a second plurality of spaced-apart esophageal locations, process said plurality of impedance values and said plurality of pressure values with said esophageal operation model, generate display data that is a representation of a bolus transit from said plurality of impedance values, and generate display data that is a representation of esophageal movement from said plurality of pressure values.
