[Dysphagia] barium and gastrographine

One of the doctors I work with has mentioned that barium should no
longer be used in VFSS because of the effects to the lungs it has if
aspirated, and gastrographine should be used instead.  Could anyone
comment or give me titles of articles I could look  up.
 
Thank you
