Evaluation of Dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Assessing Velopharyngeal Insufficiency During Phonation

Abstract

In cleft palate cases with delayed diagnosis, appropriate application of muscle repair will be sufficient for anatomic repair of VPI without any extra procedures. In addition, dynamic magnetic resonance imaging is an objective, noninvasive, reliable, and effective modality that may be used in the diagnosis and treatment of VPI without any extra investigations.
