Volumetric changes to the pharynx in healthy aging: Consequence for pharyngeal swallow mechanics and function

PURPOSE: Pharyngeal lumen volume is prone to increase as a consequence of pharyngeal muscle atrophy in aging. Yet, the impact of this on swallowing mechanics and function is poorly understood. We examined the relationship between pharyngeal volume and pharyngeal swallowing mechanics and function in...
