The ever-expanding applications of #SLT #ultrasound… Published this month in Dysphagia Research - use of #ultrasound to understand differences in #hyoid movement during #swallowing in females post #thyroidectomy 👀 link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Another study using #ultrasound as an #outcome #measure to #evaluate the impact of #exercise on #geniohyoid #muscle #size Spotted this month in Dysphagia Research link.springer.com/article/10.100…?

Last meeting of #2024 & WHAT a finale! A LIVE #ultrasound adventure with Steve Klarich to locate the #upper #oesophageal #sphincter - captured here at rest AND in function. Beautifully demonstrated with a replicable protocol… where will this take us next 🤓🤩


We may have had the last meeting of the year… but the work still goes on! #SLT presence at London’s first H&N #ultrasound course. Learn lots Dr Mari Viviers

Had a fabulous two days at Newcastle Upon Tyne ENT Speech and Language Voice Conference and learned so much about shared clinical decision-making (and injecting a pig larynx!). Also had the opportunity to share our laryngeal #ultrasound project.


Toasting another fantastic year of #SLT #ultrasound #collaboration with this #2024 publication from our colleagues in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 Can ultrasound help SLTs better understand changes to #swallowing muscles post #oral #cancer #surgery? Head & Neck CEN link.springer.com/article/10.100…

We are also looking forward to the findings of Dr Gemma Clunie @gemmaclunie.bluesky.social as she leads a project exploring the impact of #radiotherapy on the #swallowing-related #muscle #morphometry Read her project blog here: communities.springernature.com/posts/use-of-u…

Thanks to the funding from Royal Society of Edinburgh, I was able to spend a year focusing on developing the Swallow Vision project. Found out more about this project here: rse.org.uk/ultrasound-eva… QueenMargaretUni CASL research centre SLT Ultrasound

Hot off the press! A beautifully curated paper led by Dr Helen Newman (& @trache_phd) highlighting the inherent challenges of upper #airway #ultrasound - plus novel approaches to distinguish true #anatomy from imaging #artefacts. link.springer.com/epdf/10.1186/s… Unique & wonderful work 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻


Thank you for sharing this 'bonus' workstream from my #nihr funded PhD. A privilege to work with my co-authors who helped make this happen #tracheostomy #ultrasound UCL Div of Surgery Royal Free London
