Evaluation of Dysphagia in Myositis and Muscular Dystrophy Using Real‐Time MRI and Quantitative Muscle Ultrasound

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Swallowing dysfunction—dysphagia—is a frequent and debilitating symptom in neuromuscular disorders, leading to malnutrition, cachexia, aspiration pneumonia, and death. Identification of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms is important for diagnosis and treatment.
