2nd Meeting of European Academy of ORL-HNS & CE ORN-HNS - European Academy of ORL and Head & Neck Surgery (EAORL-HNS) The European Academy of otolaryngology hosted a lovely spring meeting in Nice, France. The laryngology sessions were excellent with an outstanding faculty dinner at Hotel Negresco. I enjoyed all of the new ideas discussed both in the lectures and in the hallways.
This is a lecture outline for a talk I am giving on 2013-02-28 in Nice, France at the CEORL conference. High-definition Laryngology is using high and low technology to optimally visualize pathology of the vocal cords and larynx. There are two components to Imaging which can be divided into high technology and low technology.
I had a chance for one week (June 2012) to compare the Pentax high definition flexible chip laryngoscope - VNL-1590STi (which I have used for one year) with the Olympus high-definition flexible chip laryngoscope - ENF-VH, which came out in late 2011. The Pentax scope has been available for a longer period of time. My overall impression is at the bottom of this review.
