Stroboscopy allows the visualization of vocal cord movement, which vibrate too quickly for human eye to perceive. [15] When assessing the vocal cords, the most common finding in MTD is a posterior glottic gap. [2] Other findings include increased movement of the vocal folds towards one another, and changes in the angles of the vocal fold ...

Anatomical parts seen during laryngoscopy. Direct laryngoscopy is carried out (usually) with the patient lying on their back; the laryngoscope is inserted into the mouth on the right side and flipped to the left to trap and move the tongue out of the line of sight, and, depending on the type of blade used, inserted either anterior or posterior to the epiglottis and then lifted with an upwards ...
Videostroboscopy is a high-speed medical imaging method used to visualize the dynamics of human vocal fold vibration.. When stimulated by the pressure of breath exhaled from the lungs, the two vocal folds (also known as vocal cords) open and close rapidly.
