In this paper, we review the current state of technology development and clinical
applications of endoscopic optical coherence tomography (OCT). Key design and …

The most accessible examination tool in the general otolaryngologic practice is the indirect
laryngoscopy, which allows for visual assessment of the larynx for signs of malignancy. With …

Objectives Adenotonsillectomy (AT) is commonly used to treat upper airway obstruction in
children, but selection of patients who will benefit most from AT is challenging. The need for …

Identifying distinct normal extracellular matrix (ECM) features from pathology is of the

The detection and tissue classification of mucosal lesions of the upper aerodigestive tract
(UADT) is crucial for the development of a treatment plan. Using modern endoscopic …

Diagnosis and treatment of vocal fold lesions has been a long-evolving science for the
otolaryngologist. Contemporary practice requires biopsy of a glottal lesion in the operating …

Rationale: Subglottic edema and acquired subglottic stenosis are potentially airway-
compromising sequelae in neonates following endotracheal intubation. At present, no …

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been previously identified as a promising tool for
exploring laryngeal pathologies in adults. Here, we present an OCT handheld probe …

Objective Endoscopic examination followed by tissue biopsy is the gold standard in the
evaluation of lesions of the upper aerodigestive tract. However, it can be difficult to …
