?. Medical diagnosis category, swallowing impairment severity (MBSImP?sup class="a-plus-plus">? score), clinician experience, and fluoroscopy time were the variables recorded for analysis. Fluoroscopy time was not significantly associated with medical diagnosis category (p?=?0.10). The severity of the MBSImP?sup class="a-plus-plus">? Oral Total and Pharyngeal Total resulted in statistically significant increases in fluoroscopy time (p?<?0.05). Studies by novice clinicians had longer exposure times when compared to those of experienced clinicians (p?=?0.037). Average radiation exposure time using the MBSImP?sup class="a-plus-plus">? approach was 2.9?min, with a 95?% confidence interval of 2.8-.0?min, which was well within the range of exposure times reported in the literature. This study provides preliminary information regarding the impact of medical diagnosis category, swallowing impairment severity, and clinician experience on fluoroscopy time. These findings also suggest that a thorough, standardized protocol for MBSSs did not cause unnecessary radiation exposure time during the MBSS." />
