The SCSC extends a warm welcome to our newest lab

The SCSC extends a warm welcome to our newest lab member, Dr. Ankita Bhutada.  Ankita is a postdoctoral fellow within the SCSC. She earned her PhD at the University of South Alabama. She has been a practicing speech-language pathologist for approximately 11 years across a continuum of care. Her clinical and research interests include swallowing disorders in medically complex and fragile populations, including sleep-related breathing disorders. Her research has been funded by the ASHFoundation and Indian Federation of Neurorehabilitation.

Welcome to Northwestern University!

Updated ACR-SPR Practice Parameters for the Modified Barium Swallow Study

The modified barium swallow study (MBSS) is a videofluoroscopic imaging study used to evaluate oral and pharyngeal swallowing function and airway protection. The exam is typically performed by a radiologist together with a speech-language pathologist (SLP). The American College of Radiology (ACR) creates and periodically updates Practice Parameters and Technical Standards for various radiologic procedures, including the MBSS. The goal of these Practice Parameters is to “promote the safe and effective use of diagnostic and therapeutic radiology by describing specific training, skills, and techniques,” and to “narrow the variability among radiology practices and provide guidance to achieve quality in radiology.” In 2023, the ACR partnered with the Society of Pediatric Radiology (SPR) to update the MBSS Practice Parameter. This webinar will summarize the updated ACR-SPR Practice Parameter for the Performance of the Modified Barium Swallow Study by three experts in the fields of speech-language pathology, adult radiology, and pediatric radiology.

The SCSC lab is participating in the 2024 Dysphagia Research Society (DRS) Dash for Dysphagia!

The DRS Dash for Dysphagia is a fun way for friends and colleagues around the world to join together in their support of the DRS Research and Education Fund (R&E Fund). This VIRTUAL event will help raise funds to support early dysphagia investigators from across the globe through travel scholarships offered for our 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting and support the DRS Research and Education Fund which will help establish future scholarships and grants to our members, who advance the field of dysphagia science.

Show your support by signing up to join the SCSC team or donating to our fundraising efforts at https://runsignup.com/nu_scsc!

Dr. Martin-Harris had the pleasure and honor of presenting an invited lecture titled “Resetting respiratory-swallowing coordination: impact on laryngeal biomechanics and airway protection” at The Combined Otolaryngology Spring Meetings (COSM 2024) on Thursday, May 16th.

COSM is a national meeting for Otolaryngologists, medical students, and allied health professionals for the purpose of disseminating the latest cutting edge research and expanding knowledge to enhance the quality of patient care.
