Abstract

The vocal folds are a crucial component of the human phonatory system, responsible for producing sound during speech and singing. Understanding their biomechanics and behavior under different conditions is essential for diagnosing and treating various voice disorders. This manuscript reviews different methodological approaches for conducting experiments on vocal folds in the field of laryngology. It discusses techniques for in vivo and in vitro studies, including imaging modalities, biomechanical measurements, and computational modeling. Additionally, it explores the advantages and limitations of each approach and provides insights into future directions for research in this area.
