title: Laryngoscopy, stroboscopy and other tools for the evaluation of voice disorders.
abstract: This article discusses and analyzes the diagnosis and management of voice disorders. Beginning with an insightful description of dysphonia as a sign and symptom rather than diagnosis, and an analysis of its unifying principles, the discussion continues with a review of evaluation, laryngoscopy, stroboscopy, and their respective advantages and disadvantages.
