Abstract
The use of narrow band imaging (NBI) and further technological achievements concerning the resolution and magnification of endoscopic images have revolutionized laryngology in the past 10 years. The diagnosis and therapy of dysplasia and early laryngeal carcinoma have become significantly easier. There are also clear benefits for benign laryngeal lesions. Central to these techniques is the assessment of epithelial, connective tissue and vascular changes caused by diverse diseases.
