Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital imaging and signal analysis are extremely useful in the diagnosis and study of voice disorders. When a microphone captures the voice, an acoustic signal can be produced and stored on a computer. The distinct signal pattern is an excellent indication of the quality of voice, and can be used to compare deviant voices with healthy voices. This study focuses on a computer analysis of laryngeal function-specifically on the acoustic analysis of vocal fold vibration in normal subjects and patients with specific voice disorders. The vocal pattern of each patient is analyzed using the MatLab computer program, producing a graph showing the unique vocal pattern for each patient. The acoustic recording of the vocal signal is observed, along with the analysis using fast Fourier Transform and short Fourier Transform. The patterns of many voice disorders are compared, including those in patients with vocal fold scarring and vocal fold cysts. A comparison is then made between the patterns of patients with a "normal" voice and those with the specified disorders. A brief introduction to the laryngeal image based analysis of glottal waveform is included, and compared with acoustic analysis results.

This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 777 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Clinical Assessment of Voice, Second Edition, Dr. Sataloff brings together a dynamic group of professionals who share his interdisciplinary philosophy of voice care. They provide an introduction to medical diagnostics and special problems with professional performers and voice users and offer a rare look at the assessment procedures used by the top voice care teams in the world. Clinical Assessment of Voice, Second Edition, includes chapters written by individuals with specialties in laryngology, teaching of singing and acting, voice science, and speech-language pathology, nursing, and acoustics. Starting with an extensive case history and following with the physical examination, the objective documentation in the voice laboratory, and the latest diagnostic imaging with laryngeal computed tomography and strobovideolaryngoscopy, the chapters delineate the possible diagnoses and treatment approaches that currently represent the state of the art in assessment of voice disorders. Added is current information on the medical-legal evaluation, now ever more important for the professional performer. New to this edition: New chapters on high-speed digital imaging, evolution of technology, magnetic resonance imaging, pediatric voice disorders, and thyroid disorders.Many chapters have been rewritten extensively to include the most recent practices and techniques, as well as updated references.Discussion of a large number of studies that were not addressed previously and a review of the latest literature, while also retaining classic literature.New information on topics such as measuring voice treatment outcomes, World Trade Center syndrome, and laryngeal effects of asbestos exposure.A selection of new authors who provide an interdisciplinary approach and valuable insights into the care of vocal performers. Clinical Assessment of Voice, Second Edition is ideal for speech-language pathology students and clinicians and is suitable for classroom use as well as for reference. For practicing otolaryngologists and speech-language pathologists, it is an invaluable guide for understanding the techniques for proper diagnosis and for organizing a plan of treatment. For singers and performers, knowledge of the assessment process is presented in a manner that allows them to determine what level of assessment they should pursue for the most current treatment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acoustic analysis is used to assist differential diagnosis, documentation and evaluation of treatment for voice disorders. Clinical data has shown that Jitter, Shimmer, Mean Pitch and Harmonic Noise Ratio are the indices of voice pathology. A voice with some periodicity can now be analysed with a computerised acoustic analyser, a relatively newer technique that can be widely used in clinical practice. Objectives: To create a database of normal voices, analyse and identify different parameters of these voices and hence identify benchmarks of normal voices. Materials and Methods: Voice samples of 458 normal males and 542 normal females aged between 18 to 28 years were collected using a sustained vowel /a/ which was recorded and analysed using a freely downloadable software " PRAAT". The parameters like Jitter, Shimmer, Harmonic to Noise Ratio and Pitch were derived and mean, SD and range of voice parameters were calculated. Results: In males the value of parameters were mean pitch(137.05), jitter(0.011), shimmer(0.08) and Harmonic to Noise Ratio(20.48). In females the parameters were mean pitch(234.27), jitter(0.01), shimmer(0.08) and harmonics to noise ratio(21.73). Conclusion: Voices can be objectively analysed using acoustic parameters like mean pitch, jitter, shimmer and harmonic to noise ratio. A large database yields more reliable normative parameters. Institutions should develop their own standard protocol for selection of subjects, recording of voices and their analysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NOW IN FULL COLOR! More than any previous edition, this new book includes major changes to benefit both the student and the instructor! A classic work, now in its sixth edition, Clinical Voice Pathology: Theory and Management is a compilation of the authors' vast clinical and research experiences and addresses a considerable range of voice disorders in various populations and from various etiologies including medical, environmental, social, psychological, occupational, and idiopathic threats to vocal health. The text continues to be organized for the graduate speech-language pathology student and instructor, building the foundational knowledge necessary to evaluate and treat voice disorders including history and common causes of voice disorders, anatomy and physiology of voice production, pathologies of the vocal mechanism, and an extensive array of evaluation and management approaches. In addition, the text continues to provide background in caring for the professional voice and those patients presenting with head and neck cancers. New to the Sixth EditionA new chapter introducing the SLP's responsibilities with trach and vent patientsUpdated references throughout the text to reflect the current state of clinical research in evaluation and treatment of voice disordersExpanded voice therapy chapter including new evidence-based management approachesUse of 'Call Out' boxes throughout the text to highlight cases, encourage additional thought, and suggest additional readingsFull color throughout the text including new figures and artwork to enhance learning and understanding of the materialVideos of laryngeal pathologies Whether a typical voice user, occupational voice user, elite vocal performer, head and neck cancer patient, or an individual who has lost the ability to communicate competently and confidently due to a detrimental voice change, each patient presents a unique diagnostic dilemma: how best to return the voice to its optimal condition? This text thoroughly prepares the speech-language pathology student to answer this question through a systematic development of the knowledge base necessary to evaluate and manage voice disorders. With numerous full-color images and multiple case examples Clinical Voice Pathology: Theory and Management, Sixth Edition, not only maintains but significantly improves on the standards set by its previous editions as the primary text for a graduate level course in clinical voice disorders.

This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Workshop on Models and Analysis of Vocal Emissions for Biomedical Applications (MAVEBA) came into being in 1999 from the particularly felt need of sharing know-how, objectives and results between areas that until then seemed quite distinct such as bioengineering, medicine and singing. MAVEBA deals with all aspects concerning the study of the human voice with applications ranging from the newborn to the adult and elderly. Over the years the initial issues have grown and spread also in other fields of research such as occupational voice disorders, neurology, rehabilitation, image and video analysis. MAVEBA takes place every two years in Firenze, Italy. This edition celebrates twenty-two years of uninterrupted and successful research in the field of voice analysis.
