[Computerized ultrasound imaging of the shape of the tongue in forming long vowels in German].
The contours of the tongue during pronunciation of the long German vowels were assessed by ultrasound in 22 healthy volunteers. Using statistical methods, models of the shape of tongue were calculated. These models can be used for clinical diagnosis and bio-feedback therapy in patients with speech disorders.
