Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
New developments in phoniatrics have gradually gained attention in recent years. Voice disorder is an important issue in the quality-of-life era for both patients and the clinicians who provide care for them, which include otorhinolaryngologists, speech–language pathologists, internists, surgeons, anesthesiologists, family physicians, radiologists, other primary care providers, nurses, etc. In this Special Issue, we focus on the advancements in phoniatrics including anatomy, screening, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and prognosis. In addition, how these advancements improve the clinical practice of caring for patients with voice disorders is also of interest.
We welcome up-to-date technologies in phoniatrics, as well as research topics including:
- Voice issues before and after head and neck surgery, thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy;
- Electrophysiological change of laryngeal nerves and muscles in patients with voice disorder;
- Voice intervention techniques, such as speech therapy and injection laryngoplasty;
- Integration with other technologies, such as swallowing assessment, ultrasound-guided interventions, etc.;
- Latest advancements in artificial intelligence, machine learning, programming electrical stimulation
