vocal fold analysis

Vocal fold analysis involves examining the functioning and health of the vocal cords, which produce sound when air passes through them. Healthcare professionals assess factors such as vibration, movement, and tissue quality using tools like laryngoscopy or imaging. This helps identify issues like vocal cord nodules, paralysis, or inflammation that may affect voice quality. The analysis guides diagnosis and treatment, ensuring effective management of voice disorders and maintaining healthy, functional vocal cords for speaking, singing, or other voice use.
