Normal and Abnormal Swallowing: Imaging in Diagnosis and Therapy

Book Overview

This new edition has been completely updated to reflect all the new modalities that have developed in the ten years since the first edition. Beautifully illustrated, this text presents an updated approach to the role of imaging in the diagnosis and treatment of the patient with dysphagia. Centered around the "gold standard" imaging modality, i.e. videofluorography, the text also includes chapters on other modalities such as ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. This is a "must read" for professionals already involved with patients with dysphagia, or in specialties such as radiology, gastroenterology, otolaryngology, rehabilitation medicine and speech language pathology.
