ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying voice disorders, which are problems that affect how a person speaks. The researchers want to collect images and sounds of voices from patients with certain types of voice disorders, as well as from healthy individuals. They aim to create a new system using advanced technology to help doctors better diagnose these voice issues. This could help patients who have voice disorders that are not easily diagnosed and may allow for remote monitoring and treatment, especially useful for those in areas where speech therapy services are limited.

To be eligible for the trial, participants should either have laryngeal cancer, precancerous lesions, or benign lesions that affect their voice, or be healthy individuals without throat diseases. However, those who have had laryngeal surgery or whose voice issues are caused by other conditions won't be able to participate. If you join the trial, you can expect to undergo voice and imaging tests that will contribute to improving the understanding and treatment of voice disorders. This research could lead to more effective treatment options and better access to care for many individuals.
