Abstract Background To investigate a novel velopharyngeal squeeze maneuver (VPSM) and endoscopic pharyngeal contraction grade (EPCG) scale for the evaluation of motor function. Methods During examination 77 post‐irradiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients control subjects, VPSM was rated lateral wall movement graded with EPCG during swallowing. Pharyngeal constriction ratio (PCR) measured by videofluoroscopy used correlation. Results showed almost perfect intra‐rater inter‐rater reliability...
