Abstract
Advances in laryngeal high-speed videoendoscopy (HSV) are making it possible to investigate critical relationships between vocal fold physiology and acoustic voice production in human subjects. Our group has developed HSV systems for clinical research with synchronous acquisition of acoustics, electroglottography, neck skin acceleration, and, in the most comprehensive setup, airflow and intraoral pressure. Key results will be presented from examinations of source-filter coupling and studies of the acoustic impact of vocal fold vibratory asymmetry in subjects with and without voice disorders. Findings hold potential clinical significance by revealing acoustic-HSV relationships not observable using standard stroboscopic imaging, as well as contributing to the direct evaluation and eventual improvement of voice production models. The work of T. F. Quatieri was supported by the Department of Defense under Air Force contract FA8721-05-C-0002. The work of other authors was supported by grants from the NIH National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (T32 DC00038 and R01 DC007640) and by the Institute of Laryngology and Voice Restoration.
