title: [Digital luminescence and conventional radiography in laryngeal and pharyngeal diagnosis].
abstract: Double-contrast examination of the pharynx using a modified Valsalva maneuver to achieve full distension of pharyngeal structures, is safe and easy. Conventional screen-film radiographs are compared with storage phosphor digital images and the value of this examination is illustrated by case reports.
