Laryngoscopy

What is Laryngoscopy?

Laryngoscopy is a diagnostic procedure used to examine the larynx (voice box) and vocal cords. It is commonly performed to evaluate hoarseness, voice changes, difficulty swallowing, or other symptoms affecting the throat. By using a flexible or rigid endoscope, this procedure allows for a direct view of the larynx, helping identify conditions such as vocal cord lesions, tumors, or infections.

Dr. Chetashree Gavate offers laryngoscopy for comprehensive evaluation of throat and vocal cord conditions, including:

• Examination of the larynx and vocal cords for abnormalities such as nodules, polyps, or tumors.
• Evaluation of voice-related issues like hoarseness, vocal cord paralysis, or swelling.
• Guided procedures such as biopsy or removal of abnormal tissue if necessary.

With her expertise in otoendoscopy, Dr. Gavate ensures a comfortable and effective examination, providing patients with clear insights into their ear health and tailored treatment options.
