| Core Tip |
Quality videofluoroscopic imaging of barium swallows is useful to determine swallowing outcomes for safe and efficient swallowing, conventional kinematics, and underlying functional anatomy associated with outcomes. This retrospective study of radiation therapy head and neck cancer (rtHNC) patients compared with age and gender matched controls and found that swallowing outcomes were significantly worse in rtHNC patients. Conventional kinematics indicated a reduction in laryngeal elevation. Computational analysis of swallowing mechanics using coordinate data of anatomical landmarks is here used to visualize impaired functional anatomy associated with poor outcomes in order to suggest particular targets for rehabilitation.
