This review evaluates these recent advances in clinical gastric electrophysiology, together with promising emerging data suggesting that novel gastric electrical signatures recorded at the body surface (termed "body surface mapping") may correlate with symptoms. Further technological progress and validation data are now awaited to determine whether these advances will deliver on the promise of clinical gastric electrophysiology diagnostics.
