Improved Visualization of the Internal Branch of the Superior Laryngeal Nerve during Pharyngeal Endoscopic Subepithelial Dissection with Use of Red Dichromatic Imaging

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Endoscopic subepithelial dissection is a minimally invasive treatment for superficial pharyngeal neoplastic lesions, requiring preservation of important neural structures such as the internal branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (ibSLN). We report a case in which red dichromatic imaging (RDI) appeared to improve the visualization of a linear

Vocal Fold Atrophy in Patients With Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 11, Page 4896-4902, November 2026.
This is the first study to quantify vocal fold atrophy in patients with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD) using endoscopic imaging. Compared with age‐matched controls, AD/ADRD patients showed significantly greater vocal fold bowing and reduced mucosal wave amplitude, while normalized glottal gap area did not differ.
