Rhinolaryngoscopy
Fiberoptic rhinolaryngoscopy is an ENT method for examining the nose and throat.
Usual methods can only look about a half an inch into the nose, but with the
rhinoscope the doctor can examine most of the inside of the nose, the Eustachian
tube openings, the adenoids, the throat, and the vocal cords. If the patient is
being seen in the clinic for a disorder of their airways, the doctor may want to
examine these important areas. Although not difficult, the procedure takes
a few minutes; if the clinic is busy it will be necessary to schedule a separate
appointment for the exam. The rhinoscope is a small, flexible plastic tube with
fiberoptics for viewing the airway. The rhinoscope can be attached to a television
camera to provide a permanent record of patient’s examination.
