Stroboscopy And Other Techniques for the Analysis of Vocal Fold Vibration

Laryngostroboscopy makes the normal and pathological vibration process of vocal folds visible during phonation. Stroboscopy is a routine testing method which is recognized worldwide within the practice of laryngologists, phoniatricians, ENT surgeons, neurologists and voice therapists. This text, featuring full colour illustrations, describes the clinical values for functional and organic larynx-related illness according to basic theoretical principles. Laryngostroboscopy is a routine procedure. However, intensive training under guidance is necessary before a higher level of confidence is attained in performing laryngostroboscopy: the laryngostroboscopy image depends on the sound pressure level; and the fundamental frequency of the voice and the assessment of laryngostroboscopic findings is very closely linked to the experience of the examiner, since important influential factors on the vocal folds vibrations do not directly influence the examiner' s judgement.Boehme, Gerhard is the author of 'Stroboscopy And Other Techniques for the Analysis of Vocal Fold Vibration' with ISBN 9781861563842 and ISBN 1861563841.
