    Study Summary Information
    Lay Summary
    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) as a motor neuron disease is a rare disease for which there is no clear cure yet. Swallowing disorder is one of the main symptoms of patients with advanced amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which causes pneumonia and various complications due to malnutrition and aspiration. In particular, in patients with severe bulbar symptom, oral phase impairments are prominent due to muscle loss and muscle weakness around the oral cavity, and lip sealing and tongue movement impairment occur. The video fluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS) is the gold standard for the evaluation of patients with swallowing disorders, but due to the nature of the disease in progress, the amount of radiation exposure is high due to repeated tests every few months. In addition, there is a limitation in that it is difficult to evaluate the characteristics or quantitative evaluation of swallowing disorders that are different from other diseases in patients with  ALS. Ultrasonography is a non-invasive,radiation-free imaging stduy that can be evaluated in a short time. It has been known as a useful assessment tool to evaluate swallowing disorders due to loss of the tongue muscle among the symptoms of ALS. In this study, not only a simple comparison between ultrasound and videofluoroscopic swallowing test, but also the change and correlation with time in various aspects such as the patient's nutritional status, disease severity, and quality of life were investigated.
