Master the basics of laryngoscopy and rhinoscopy to observe the airway with confidence.
This edition guides beginners through practical technique, from patient setup to interpreting the laryngeal and nasal anatomy.

The material also lays out how to check vocal cord function and what signs point to different laryngeal conditions.- How to position the patient and insert mirrors or instruments for a stable view
- How to identify key nasal and laryngeal structures and assess their appearance
- How to test mobility of the arytenoids and the tension of the vocal cords
