How I Do It: The Transtracheal Approach for Awake Cricopharyngeal Botulinum Toxin Injection
This transtracheal technique for cricopharyngeal botulinum toxin injection is a safe and effective option for chemodenervation of this muscle in the awake patient. Its advantages include reduced risk of toxin spread to intrinsic laryngeal muscles, the ability to administer higher doses of botulinum toxin, improved access to the entire length of the ...

Nasal decongestion evaluated by acoustic rhinometry.
Acoustic rhinometry measures the cross-sectional area of the nasal cavity based on changes in acoustic impedance. The volume of the nasal cavity can be calculated by mathematical integration of the cross-sectional areas. One of the advantages of this procedure is that repeated measurements can be quickly performed non-invasively.
