Videostroboscopy

Videostroboscopy (or stroboscopy) is a specialised examination of the vocal folds using an endoscope placed through the nose or mouth to examine the larynx (voice box) with a strobe light. This special light source allows assessment of the vibration of the vocal folds. The video examination is recorded for detailed review and for patient education. The video examinations are stored for future reference to follow a patient's progress.

David uses a high definition videoendoscope (the latest VQ model from Olympus) with a state of the art stroboscope in his consultation rooms in Remuera, and has extensive experience in the interpretation of this examination.
