What Is the Pterygomandibular Raphe? A Confluence of Fasciae Rather Than a Discrete Structure
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The pterygomandibular raphe (PMR) has traditionally been described as a fibrous or tendinous band connecting the bucinator (BM) and superior pharyngeal constrictor (SPCM) muscles. However, recent evidence has questioned its existence. This study aimed to reevaluate the anatomy of the pterygomandibular region by preserving fascial continuity ...

Anatomy of the Soft Palate and Its Role in Upper Airway Function: A Narrative Review
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The soft palate is a complex anatomical structure, located at the posterior aspect of the oral and nasal cavities, able to dynamically create valve closure of the nasal and the oral cavities. Its precise movement is critical for speech, swallowing, and respiration. Despite its functional importance, detailed characterization of its constituent

Piezoelectric Biomechanical Assessment of Swallowing Across Ages and Swallowing Task [PDF]
, 1998 Even though the Modified Barium Swallow (l\1BS) is the gold standard for the evaluation of swallowing disorders, the MBS has several limitations ( e.g., invasiveness, cost and portability).
