Abstract:
The radiological study of the mechanism has helped to define the physiology of the oral and pharyngeal phase of deglutition. Being a dynamic examination, it is part of the work-up in swallowing disorders, such as cervical dysphagia and inhalation episodes. Among the various techniques available, videofluoroscopy remains the examination of choice.
