Ebook: Understanding Voice Problems: A Physiological Perspective for Diagnosis and Treatment (Understanding Voice Problems: Phys Persp/ Diag & Treatment)

Understanding Voice Problems: A Physiological Perspective for Diagnosis and Treatment emphasizes the physiological perspective of voice disorders—and the behavioral and emotional factors that can influence these changes. Readers will find a strong foundation in normal phonatory physiology and acoustics as well as pathophysiology arising from voice misuse, abuse, or neurological involvement. Coverage includes in-depth explorations of patient interviewing, history-taking, examination, and testing and discussions of pediatric and geriatric voice considerations. The book contains numerous illustrations, including full-color plates of vocal fold pathologies. A companion website features over 20 videos that demonstrate healthy, normally functioning larynges at work, plus larynges with various pathological problems.
