Hyoid Bone Tracking in a Videofluoroscopic Swallowing Study Using a Deep-Learning-Based Segmentation Network

Diagnostics, 2021
Kinematic analysis of the hyoid bone in a videofluorosopic swallowing study (VFSS) is important for assessing dysphagia. However, calibrating the hyoid bone movement is time-consuming, and its reliability shows wide variation.
