The diagnosis of an "Ulcer" is most often made without the need for specialized testing, its symptomatology being so characteristic. Treatment can be instituted based upon symptoms and physical examination along. If the anticipated result of treatment is not met, or if the symptomatology is particularly severe then contrast based xrays of the upper Gastrointestinal Tract can be performed. In some cases the more expensive MRIs are performed.
