[Dysphagia] VF anterior view

Dear All

On behalf of my colleagues I would like to post this.  We all know that AP 
view is important but is there any primary source evidence?  I managed to come 
up with one paper on Medline (on cricopharyngeal dysfunction) since 1966 and 
nothing on Pubmed.  This was using very simple searches I must admit.

Many thanks for any papers you can point us at.

The SLTs hold a regular study group on topics in videofluoroscopy. This month 
we were trying to look at the evidence for doing A-P as well as lateral views 
when doing a V/f.

Despite several combinations on a literature search, I have been unable to 
come up with any decent articles for and against the case.

Do you know of any, or is it the case that there isn't much evidence around?
