Description
Bone spurs along the spine can grow so large they squeeze the throat shut in a rare syndrome. Michaela Cellina and co-authors show a motion X-ray at work on it in a 2025 case report. Their patient was a 50-year-old woman with neck pain and hard swallowing.
Still scans showed chalky flows down four neck bones. The moving scan, taken while she drank barium, caught the squeeze live. Bulky front spurs narrowed the throat passage in motion. Surgeons cut the spurs and chalk away. Her swallowing improved after the operation. Motion imaging adds function to the usual form read.
