Fluoroscopy

Fluoroscopy provides real-time dynamic imaging (continuous X-ray movie) of internal structures to aid with the diagnosis of conditions that may not be apparent on static radiographs. This allows for the evaluation of an in-action motion or motility of various structures to aid in the diagnosis of various dynamic diseases.

Common diseases that are diagnosed by utilizing Fluoroscopy include

• Dynamic tracheal collapse (video fluoroscopic dynamic airway exam)

• Esophageal dysmotility (video fluoroscopic swallow study).
