Yes it can. A Modified Barium Swallow is usually done by a qualified Radiologist and Speech Pathologist and it includes watching a patient eat and drink a variety of consistancies. The food items are mixed with Barium Sulphate (so the food/drink can show up on xray) to see if there is a swallowing problem, why and if there are any techniques and therapies to compensate and improve the swallow.

No. Swallowing air is not a good thing. It has zero benefits. Aerophagia is the term commonly heard when someone refers to swallowing too much air. If you swallow too much air it can cause (painful) intestinal cramps, abdominal pains, and you'll belch excessively. If only we could live in the Willy Wonka world.
The Modified Barium Swallow test seeks to show the individual's swallowing pattern and any swallowing problems the patient is experiencing. - No patient preparation is necessary before the test. You can eat and drink normally. - The total study takes about 10 minutes, with 5 minutes of fluoroscope imaging. - Patient is seated or standing. - The patient consumes a small variety of items containing barium, including thin liquid, thick liquid, semi-solid (pudding), solid (cookie) and a barium tablet. - The study is video-recorded for later play-back and analysis. - The testing is done by a Radiologist and a Speech Pathologist (expert in Swallowing Disorders.) - It evaluates swallowing, including oral cavity, pharynx, larynx and cervical esophagus. - It detects the presence of aspiration (getting food in the air tube) and the causes. - If the patient aspirates (inhales food), therapy is provided to help control it. After the examination, you can resume your usual diet and take your usual medications unless told otherwise by your doctor. For a day or two your bowel movements may look white because of the barium. Sometimes the barium can cause temporary constipation, which can be treated by an ordinary laxative. Drinking more fluids for several days following the test can also help.

A MBS is done to a patient that has had a stroke/CVA to see if there is a swallowing problem. Stroke patients often have speaking problems due to cranial nerve fallout. These cranial nerves are also responsible for the sensory and motor movements for swallowing. if these become damaged, swallowing problems may occur. A MBS looks to see if the patient si swallowing safely and on what consistencies they are not. A MBS is used to see if there are any compensation techniques that can make the swallowing safer or if therapy is indicated. This is done by a Speech Pathologist and a Radiologist
