Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES)
Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) is a diagnostic procedure that uses a flexible endoscope to assess the swallowing process. The scope is inserted through the nose and provides real-time visualization of the throat and vocal cords while the patient swallows various foods and liquids. FEES helps identify swallowing difficulties, aspiration risks, and structural abnormalities, offering valuable insights into safe swallowing techniques and guiding personalized treatment plans for conditions affecting swallowing function.
