Abstract

Introduction: For the therapy of dysphagia, it is of utmost importance to determine swallowing quality so that one may plan therapy and recommend adequate foods.

In this study, we asked whether clinical assessment regarding the quality of swallowing is confirmed by fiberoptic evaluation of swallowing (FEES).
