A new method of digitally imaging vocal fold vibration using a solid-state image sensor attached to a conventional camera system is reported. The obtained image signals are stored in an image memory in combination with a personal computer through a high-speed A/D converter. The maximum frame rate for analysis is 4000 fps. After storage of data, images can be reproduced and displayed on a monitor screen as a form of slow-motion display. The system has proved useful for clinical examination of pathological vocal fold vibration.
