Reliability of Measuring Geniohyoid Cross-Sectional Area with B-Mode Ultrasound
B-mode ultrasound is a safe noninvasive procedure that has been used to characterize aspects of the oropharyngeal swallow. The submental suprahyoid...

Cutoff value of the geniohyoid muscle mass to identify sarcopenic dysphagia by ultrasonography
PurposeDetermining the strength and area of the swallowing muscles is important in patients with sarcopenic dysphagia. Although the normative data on...

Mucocele Arising from Ectopic Salivary Gland Tissue Between the Bilateral Geniohyoid Muscles
In the oral and maxillofacial region, most mucoceles arising from minor salivary glands are observed on the lower lip, and less frequently occur at...

Using Ultrasound to Document the Effects of Expiratory Muscle Strength Training (EMST) on the Geniohyoid Muscle
Expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) is an exercise program designed to strengthen the muscles of expiration by increasing expiratory load...

A Novel Exercise to Improve Suprahyoid Muscle Area and Intensity as Evaluated by Ultrasonography
Insufficient suprahyoid muscle strength with poor opening of the upper esophageal sphincter can cause dysphagia. This study investigated whether an...

The feasibility of visualizing and quantifying muscle changes in postoperative oral cancer patients using Quantitative Muscle Ultrasound (QMUS)
PurposeQuantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS) is a patient friendly tool for examining orofacial muscles. Resection of tissue can have an effect on...

Age-related composition changes in swallowing-related muscles: a Dixon MRI study
BackgroundDysphagia is considered a social problem in the super-aging society. However, age-related changes in swallowing-related muscles have not...

Effects of Tongue-Strengthening Exercise on the Geniohyoid Muscle in Young Healthy Adults
The activities of the suprahyoid muscles have been reported to be induced by tongue muscle contraction. The purpose of this research was to...
-
Associations of swallowing-related muscle quantity and quality with sarcopenic parameters
PurposeTo examine the associations between swallowing-related muscle characteristics and sarcopenic parameters.
MethodsWe included 147...

Cytokine and Growth Factor Response in a Rat Model of Radiation Induced Injury to the Submental Muscles
Submental muscles (i.e., mylohyoid and geniohyoid) play a vital role during swallowing, protecting the airway from ingested material. To design...

Quantification of the Swallowing Mechanism Through Muscle Synergy Analysis
Decreased swallowing function increases the risk of choking and aspiration pneumonia. Videofluoroscopy and computed tomography allow for detailed...
-
Ultrasonography to detect age-related changes in swallowing muscles
PurposeSarcopenia of swallowing muscles is a potential cause of dysphagia. We investigated age-related changes in mass and quality of swallowing...
-
Difference in the Electromyographic Behavior of the Masticatory and Swallowing Muscles During Cued Versus Spontaneous Swallowing
The risk of dysphagia and/or aspiration is determined using screening tests, such as the repeated saliva swallowing test and modified water...

A Newly Discovered Tendon Between the Genioglossus Muscle and Epiglottic Cartilage Identified by Histological Observation of the Pre-Epiglottic Space
Epiglottic retroversion is difficult to explain anatomically. One reason is inadequate structural identification of the ligaments in the submucosal...
