A new computed tomography‐based approach to quantify swallowing muscle volume by measuring tongue muscle area in a single slice

Abstract Background Measuring the swallowing muscle mass with volume measurements is complex and time intensive; therefore, it is not used in clinical practice. However, it can be clinically relevant, for instance, in the case of sarcopenic dysphagia. The aim of the study was to develop a feasible a...
