Fibre Optic Larynxgoscopy (FOL)

Fibre Optic Laryngoscopy (FOL) is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure that uses a thin, flexible tube equipped with a camera and light source to visualize the larynx (voice box) and surrounding structures. During the test, the tube is gently inserted through the nose or mouth, allowing the doctor to examine the vocal cords and assess any abnormalities, such as inflammation, lesions, or tumors. This procedure typically takes only a few minutes and can provide valuable information for diagnosing voice disorders or other throat-related conditions.
