Correction to: An Exploratory Study of Hyoid Visibility, Position, and Swallowing-Related Displacement in a Pediatric Population (Dysphagia, (2019), 34, 2, (248-256), 10.1007/s00455-018-9942-3)

Abstract

This letter notifies the readers of the Dysphagia journal of an error in the original published version of this manuscript, describing hyoid position during swallowing in children using an available pediatric dataset. A previously available open source spreadsheet tool had been used to calculate the position of the hyoid bone on lateral view videofluoroscopic images. An error in the mathematical formula built into the spreadsheet resulted in a reversal of reported results for measures of peak hyoid position in the X and Y planes of measurement. This erratum provides corrections to the results and interpretations of the original manuscript.
