CONT

Currently the primary technique for inspecting vocal-fold vibrations is strobovideolaryngoscopy. It uses a microphone placed near the larynx to trigger a stroboscope that illuminates the vocal folds. If the frequency of the stroboscopic light is about two hertz out of phase with the vibration, an observer can watch the vocal folds in simulated slow motion.

[...] vídeo-laringo-estroboscopia [...] Es el método más fiable, actual, moderno, sin equivocaciones, y comprobable, ya que se graba la exploración, mediante vídeo. [...] Se coloca un micrófono y cuando el paciente fona (pronuncia la e ó la i) se activa la estroboscopia; la luz ilumina las cuerdas vocales y la frecuencia de la luz estroboscópica se desfasa unos dos hertz de la vibración, y es cuando el médico explorador visualiza de modo lento, los movimientos ondulatorios de las vibraciones de las cuerdas vocales.
