The instructor with the student can select the voice meter on the SpeechViewer III and then set up a pitch range to monitor pitch control during therapy. A screen shot of statistics is available for showing and explaining the student's pitch range during therapy. This is an effective way to discuss changes that have been achieved.

What is the purpose of voice analysis?
Analysis is conducted through a computer based program used to measure voice output through analysis of pitch, volume, and prosody (rate, rhythm, intonation) during speaking tasks. The multi-dimensional voice profile provides a visual representation of the voice. The data gathered assists with evaluation of the voice disorder, refines treatment goals, and provides a baseline of the voice. The Visi-Pitch is also a valuable biofeedback tool used during the treatment process.
Why do we need videostroboscopy?
Videostroboscopy provides key information needed in the investigation of voice disorders by pinpointing the underlying problem or problems with vocal cord vibration so treatment can be directed appropriately. Videostroboscopy is a much more sensitive tool and more helpful in identifying subtle issues with the “voice box” over other techniques, such as rigid or flexible transnasal laryngoscopy with continuous light sources. While a laryngoscopy helps identify problems of a general nature, a videostroboscopy provides a more detailed view and can reveal problems with the vocal cords such as lesions or irregularities in their vibration.
How does videotroboscopy work?
Videostroboscopy uses a flashing light source to create a slow motion view of vocal cord vibration. Vocal cord vibration is very fast thus the “slow motion” view is actually taken from many successive rounds of vibration. This unique viewing allows the voice care team to look at how each vocal cord vibrates during the different phases of the vocal cord’s vibration cycle, allowing for clear identification of smaller abnormalities in vocal cord movement that are unable to be observed using any other technique.
What is vocal cord granuloma?
Vocal cord granulomas are masses that result from irritation. They can grow as a response to an irritation or injury.
Why does my voice stop working?
The voice can be lost temporarily due to overuse, laryngitis, or viral infection. If symptoms persist for an extended period they will likely not resolve on their own and may even worsen over time.

Can a speech pathologist diagnose voice disorders?
If you answered YES to any of these questions, consult an Otolaryngologist or Ear Nose and Throat doctor (ENT) who can determine the underlying cause of the voice disorder. The Speech-Language Pathologist can provide education on healthy voice use, teaching effective voicing techniques in order to eliminate the voice problem, prevent future occurrence, and in many cases can provide treatment to avoid surgical intervention that may have otherwise been necessary.
