A stereo-fiberscope with a magnetic interlens bridge for laryngeal observation

Abstract
A stereoscopic method of observation of the larynx and the pharynx during speech utterances was devised, making use of fiber-optic cables and a magnetic bridge. The cables are inserted via the subject''s nostrils. The bridge makes the 2 objective lenses at the tips of the cables abut within the pharynx near the uvula, and the 2 images viewed through the separate lenses at the prescribed mutual distance are recorded on each frame of a 16 mm film side by side for computer processing of the 3-dimensional data.
