Richard Schatzki

Richard Schatzki (1901-1992) was a German-American radiologist.

Richard Schatzki trained in radiology in Berlin with Hans Heinrich Berg (1889-1968) who was the leading diagnostic radiologist in Germany at that time. He immigrated to the USA in 1933 and subsequently worked as a radiologist in Boston. He was for a period President of the New England Roentgen Ray Society, of which he became an honorary member 1967.

In the 1950s, Schatzki first characterized a type of pathological stricture of the lower esophagus, which is now known as a Schatzki ring.
