This paper is meant to be an introduction to and general reference for ultrasound imaging for
new and moderately experienced users of the instrument. The paper consists of eight …

The position of the tongue relative to the upper and lower jaws is regulated in part by the
position of the hyoid bone, which, with the anterior and posterior suprahyoid muscles …

An increasingly wide variety of imaging and tracking technologies have been applied to
measuring speech articulation in recent years. However, virtually all of these techniques …

The present study examined cross-sectional tongue shape and linguopalatal contact during
[s],[∫],[1],[ε],[c],[o] and [a] in CVC utterances. Three cross-sectional scans of the tongue …

Current developments in the use of five-dimensional electromagnetic articulography for
speech research are reviewed. Obvious advantages are the higher information density per …

Tongue and vocal tract models that are derived from physiological data are usually based
on two-dimensional data, such as lateral X-rays or tracking of midsagittal pellets. Models …

Previous studies reporting the use of ultrasound tongue imaging with clinical populations
have generally provided qualitative information on tongue movement. Meaningful …

Chinese languages have a set of segments known as apical vowels, which have been
analysed in previous studies as either genuine vowels, fricative vowels, fricative consonants …

Purpose To mitigate a common artifact in spiral real‐time MRI, caused by aliasing of signal
outside the desired FOV. This artifact frequently occurs in midsagittal speech real‐time MRI …

Noninvasive imaging is widely used in speech research as a means to investigate the
sha** and dynamics of the vocal tract during speech production. 3-D dynamic MRI would …
