title: [Simultaneous video radiography and "solid state" intraluminal pharyngeal manometry during barium swallow; video manometry].
abstract: Recent advances in technology, including computerized analysis, have renewed interest in pharyngeal manometry. Simultaneous fluoroscopy and videography have been recommended by many authors. This article reviews the history of pharyngeal manometry and highlights some of the technical difficulties involved. We also report the current status of the simultaneous technique and summarize our own results as well as those reported by other research groups.
