Overview
Other diagnostic studies for dysphagia include video fluoroscopic swallowing study and esophageal manometry. Video fluoroscopic swallowing study, also known as modified barium swallow, is used as the initial study for the evaluation of oropharyngeal dysphagia.
Other Diagnostic Studies
Other diagnostics studies for dysphagia are as follows:[1][2]
Oropharyngeal Dysphagia
- Videofloroscopic Swallowing Study
- Electromyography (EMG)
- Electroglottography (EGG) (records vocal fold movement)
- Pharyngeal manometry
Video Fluoroscopic Swallowing Study
Video fluoroscopic swallowing study, also known as modified barium swallow, is used as the initial study for the evaluation of oropharyngeal dysphagia.[3][4][5]
It provides the following information about the oropharyngeal swallowing mechanism:[6]
- Delay in initiation of pharyngeal swallowing
- Nasopharyngeal regurgitation
- Residue of ingestate within the pharyngeal cavity after swallowing
- Aspiration of ingestate

Esophageal Dysphagia
- Esophageal manometry
- High resolution manometry
- Uses miniature, multichannel, water-perfused catheters or solid-state catheters
- Pressures are recorded along the esophageal body and across the gastroesophageal junction
- Computerized interpolation generates esophageal pressure isocontour lines
- Facilitates differentiation between a restrictive disorder and muscular weakness in the pharyngoesophageal segment
- High resolution manometry
