Stroboscopy

Stroboscopy

Stroboscopy is a diagnostic technique used to examine vocal cord function and assess voice disorders. During the procedure, a strobe light is synchronized with the patient’s voice to create a slow-motion view of the vocal cords in action. This allows for detailed observation of the vibration patterns, movements, and any irregularities of the vocal folds. Stroboscopy is crucial for diagnosing conditions like vocal cord nodules, polyps, or lesions, and helps guide effective treatment and voice therapy strategies.
