This paper discusses techniques in the application of cinefluorography to the study of speech and presents sample data to illustrate such techniques. The data pertain to movements of the tongue, jaw, and hyoid bone in the midsagittal plane. In the case of the tongue, small radiopaque markers were attached to the midline of this structure; and the cineradiographs were used to record the planar displacement patterns of the markers. The primary objective of the analysis methods is the investigation of the intrastructural and interstructural relationships in lingual articulation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
