DOI: 10.1007/s00455-021-10291-7
Abstract: Modified Barium Swallow Studies (MBSSs) are important tests to aid the diagnosis of swallowing impairment and guide treatment planning. Since MBSSs use ionizing radiation, it is important to understand the radiation exposure associated with the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00455-022-10447-z
Abstract: The Modified Barium Swallow Study (MBSS) is a videofluoroscopic examination of the anatomy and physiology involved in swallowing. Like other fluoroscopic examinations, the MBSS uses ionizing radiation with related radiation risks. Thus, the procedures and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1044/2020_ajslp-20-00255
Abstract: Purpose Despite the emphasis on using evidence-based practice for patient care, as clinicians, we sometimes find that there is insufficient evidence to support our clinical practices. One example of this is the "contentious" inclusion of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1044/2022_ajslp-22-00029
Abstract: PURPOSE Dysphagia impacts many poststroke survivors with wide-ranging prevalence in the acute and chronic phases. One relatively unexplored manifestation of poststroke swallowing impairment is that of primary or co-occurring esophageal dysphagia. The incidence of esophageal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/gutjnl-2017-314472.358
Abstract: Introduction The gold standard for diagnosis of primary oesophageal dysmotility (POD) is high-resolution manometry (HRM). Barium swallow (BS) studies remain integral to many diagnostic algorithms for dysphagia. Our aim was to assess the sensitivity and… read more here.
