The use of a Swallowing Workstation, to associate, in synchrony, the high-definition imaages of the bolus progression and the electromyographic recording of the bolus transit will allow us study the specific physiopathological alterations of swallowing in Paarkinson Disease, in related syndromes (MSA and PSP) and in ALS. In particular it will possible to evaluate the temporal patterns of activation of the different muscle groups, the alterations of the coordination between them and the transit speed of the bolus in the different phases.
