title: Vocal fold vibration and voice quality.
abstract: There have been various methods proposed for diagnosing laryngeal pathology by analyzing the pathological voice. However, even if two diagnoses are the same, the voice quality might not be the same. In other words, it is difficult to diagnose laryngeal pathology only by acoustic parameters. In this study, we analyze the vibration patterns seen in various pathological cases to explain pathological voice quality.
