The
Institute is equipped with a state- of-
the- art ATMOS Endo Stroboscope.
It is used to assess vocal cord vibration
patterns, mucosal pliability, the underlying
layered structure of the vocal folds, and
the undersurface of the vocal fold edges.
It is particularly valuable when
1) Assessing stiffness,
scar or submucosal injury
2) Detecting small vocal fold lesions
3) Estimating the depth of invasion of tumour
4) Identifying asymmetric mass or tension
5) Determining the resumption of voicing activities
after phonosurgery
We
have examined over a hundred patients with
voice disorders in the last 1 ½ months
ever since the equipment had been installed.
