Overview

Other imaging studies for laryngitis include larygoscopy, which may demonstrate the cause of the disease, and includes vocal cord nodule, polyp, or signs of laryngeal cancer.[1]

Other Imaging Findings

Laryngoscopy

Laryngoscopy is indicated when hoarseness lasts longer than two weeks and does not have an apparent benign cause; this can occur via direct or indirect laryngoscopy.[1][2][3]
