Voice Box Exam With Slow-Motion Vocal Cord Imaging

Minnesota rates for HCPCS 31579

This procedure uses a scope, inserted through the mouth or nose, to examine the voice box while a special strobing light captures the vocal cords in slow motion as a person speaks or sings. It helps assess how well the vocal cords vibrate and close together. It's commonly used to evaluate hoarseness or other voice problems.
