Voice is the basic interpersonal communication modality and is of particular importance in such professions as teacher, journalist or conference center employee. Early diagnosis of occupational voice disorders is becoming one of the health priorities. Current international standards emphasize the need for comprehensive voice assessment in phoniatric examinations.
