Summary Although oropharyngeal and laryngeal structures are essential for swallowing, the three‐dimensional (3D) anatomy is not well understood, due in part to limitations of available measuring techniques. This study uses 3D images acquired by 320‐row area detector computed tomography (‘320‐ ADCT ’), measure pharynx larynx investigate effects age, gender height. Fifty‐four healthy volunteers (30 male, 24 female, 23–77 years) underwent one single‐phase volume scan (0·35 s) with 320‐ during...
Research on muscle activation patterns during swallowing has been limited. Newly developed 320-row area detector computed tomography (320-ADCT) excellent spatial and temporal resolution, which facilitates identification of laryngopharyngeal structures quantitative kinematic analysis pharyngeal swallowing. We investigated activity by observing the changes in length hyoid muscles. 320-ADCT was performed 26 healthy males while The following parameters were analyzed three-dimensionally: 1)...

Jpn J Compr Rehabil Sci 2015; 6: 124-128.Objective: This study compared the (DSS) scores obtained from clinical findings and screening tests by a skilled nurse with DSS swallowing (VE).Methods: Forty-five dysphagic patients (average age: 75 years) were enrolled in this between July 2011 March 2012. done certified...
This study presents the first report on development of an artificial intelligence (AI) for automatic region segmentation four-dimensional computer tomography (4D-CT) images during swallowing. The material consists 4D-CT taken Additionally, data verifying practicality AI were obtained from mastication and ground truth created five datasets A 3D convolutional model nnU-Net was used AI. learning evaluation method leave-one-out cross-validation. number epochs training 100.

Dysphagia significantly impacts prognosis in individuals with multiple system atrophy (MSA). While video-based assessments are practical, their limited availability highlights the need for a simple tool such as Severity Scale (DSS) clinical practice. To evaluate utility of DSS assessing dysphagia MSA patients and its correlations indices. We examined 43 using other measures, including Unified Rating (UMSARS) cerebrospinal fluid 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid levels. As follow-up, 11 underwent...
Abstract Tongue-hold swallow (THS) is a exercise in which an individual swallows saliva while holding the anterior portion of tongue between front teeth. The effect THS on pharyngeal contractile vigor still unclear. purpose this study was to quantify using high-resolution manometry with integral analysis. Twenty-two healthy participants performed three different tasks: normal swallow, weak (in protruded 1 cm outside upper incisors), and strong 2 incisors). repeated each task twice randomly....

Examination of the distance measurement error and exposed dose when using a 320-row area detector CT: A comparison with videofluoroscopic examination swallowing. Jpn J Compr Rehabil Sci 2011; 2: 18-23 Purpose: The purpose this study was to compare in computed tomography (320-ADCT) swallowing (VF). Method: We used markers radiopacity attached adult skull specimens measure distances between...
Dysphagia is a common problem in patients with history of stroke. In Japan, reclined position commonly used as compensatory technique to address this problem.To evaluate the effect on swallowing function stroke who had dysphagia.A retrospective analysis was carried out videofluoroscopic examination (VF) 4ml honey-thick liquid swallows collected over 9 years. Penetration-aspiration scale (PAS) and residue scores were compared for following: body at 90° upright (90°U) 60° reclining (60°R)...
