Mao S, Naser M, Buoy S, Brock K, Hutcheson K
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc . 2025 Mar; 2024:1-4. PMID: 40039880
Modified Barium Swallow (MBS) exams, performed using video-fluoroscopy, an X-ray imaging technique, are essential for assessing swallowing function. They visualize the barium bolus (contrast agent) during the swallowing process in...

Mao S, Wang J, McMillan H, Mohamed A, Buoy S, Ahmed S, et al.
Head Neck . 2025 Jan; PMID: 39794912
Background: Quantifying head and neck lymphedema and fibrosis (HN-LEF) is crucial in the investigation and management of treatment sequelae in head and neck cancer (HNC). Methods: The T1- and T2-weighted...

Shu K, Mao S, Zhang Z, Coyle J, Sejdic E
Comput Methods Programs Biomed . 2024 Nov; 259:108505. PMID: 39579458
Videofluoroscopic swallowing studies (VFSS) capture the complex anatomy and physiology contributing to bolus transport and airway protection during swallowing. While clinical assessment of VFSS can be affected by evaluators subjectivity...

Li W, Mao S, Mahoney A, Coyle J, Sejdic E
J Imaging Inform Med . 2024 Feb; 37(4):1922-1932. PMID: 38383805
The hyoid bone displacement and rotation are critical kinematic events of the swallowing process in the assessment of videofluoroscopic swallow studies (VFSS). However, the quantitative analysis of such events requires...

Hansen N, Woodman K, Buoy S, Mao S, Barbon C, Lai S, et al.
Head Neck . 2023 Dec; 46(3):581-591. PMID: 38133080
Background: This pilot study analyzed correlations between tongue electrical impedance myography (EIM), standard tongue electromyography (EMG), and tongue functional measures in N = 4 long-term oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) survivors. Methods:...

Sabry A, Mahoney A, Mao S, Khalifa Y, Sejdic E, Coyle J
Perspect ASHA Spec Interest Groups . 2022 Aug; 5(6):1647-1656. PMID: 35937555
Purpose: Safe swallowing requires adequate protection of the airway to prevent swallowed materials from entering the trachea or lungs (i.e., aspiration). Laryngeal vestibule closure (LVC) is the first line of...

Shu K, Perera S, Mahoney A, Mao S, Coyle J, Sejdic E
Laryngoscope . 2022 Jun; 133(3):521-527. PMID: 35657100
Background: Upper esophageal sphincter opening (UESO), and laryngeal vestibule closure (LVC) are two essential kinematic events whose timings are crucial for adequate bolus clearance and airway protection during swallowing. Their...

Mao S, Sejdic E
IEEE Trans Neural Netw Learn Syst . 2022 Feb; 34(10):6983-7003. PMID: 35130174
Artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques have progressed dramatically and become powerful tools required to solve complicated tasks, such as computer vision, speech recognition, and natural language processing. Since these...

Zhang Z, Mao S, Coyle J, Sejdic E
Med Image Anal . 2021 Sep; 74:102218. PMID: 34487983
Judging swallowing kinematic impairments via videofluoroscopy represents the gold standard for the detection and evaluation of swallowing disorders. However, the efficiency and accuracy of such a biomechanical kinematic analysis vary...
