  • Title: Computation of the three-dimensional medial surface dynamics of the vocal folds.
    Author: Döllinger M, Berry DA.
    Journal: J Biomech; 2006; 39(2):369-74. PubMed ID: 16321641.
    Abstract:
    To increase our understanding of pathological and healthy voice production, quantitative measurement of the medial surface dynamics of the vocal folds is significant, albeit rarely performed because of the inaccessibility of the vocal folds. Using an excised hemilarynx methodology, a new calibration technique, herein referred to as the linear approximate (LA) method, was introduced to compute the three-dimensional coordinates of fleshpoints along the entire medial surface of the vocal fold. The results were compared with results from the direct linear transform. An associated error estimation was presented, demonstrating the improved accuracy of the new method. A test on real data was reported including computation of quantitative measurements of vocal fold dynamics.
