SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Normal and Abnormal Swallowing: Imaging in Diagnosis and Therapy presents a practical approach to the role of imaging in the diagnosis and treatment of the patient with dyspha- gis. The editors, Drs. Jones and Donner, have included the role of newer modalities such as ultrasound, computed tomo- graphy, and magnetic resonance imaging as well as general background material, making this title a must for those pro- fessionals already involved in image swallowing and those who are interested in learning more aboutthese multidisci- plinary dysphagic disorders. Professionals in radiology, otolaryngology, digestive diseases/gastroenterology, and speech pathology will definitely be interested in this book.
