Oro‐pharyngo‐esophageal radionuclide scintigraphy predicts aspiration pneumonia risk and associated survival in post‐irradiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients

OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate that oro‐pharyngo‐esophageal radionuclide scintigraphy (OPERS) not only detects tracheobronchial aspiration after swallowing, but also quantifies the amount of aspiration and subsequent clearance.
