How is gastritis diagnosed?

Your doctor will usually suspect gastritis based upon your symptoms. A blood, stool or breath test may be conducted to test for Helicobacter pylori bacteria. An upper endoscopy (gastroscopy) and tissue biopsies can help to assess the severity and identify the underlying cause of your gastritis.
