Clinical anatomy and physiology of the voice

Robert T Sataloff et al. Otolaryngol Clin North Am. 2007 Oct.

Abstract

The anatomy and physiology of voice include not only the larynx but also all body systems. The larynx consists of a skeleton, mucosa, intrinsic muscles, and extrinsic muscles. The vocal folds form the oscillator of the vocal tract, the subglottic vocal tract acts as a power source, and the supraglottic vocal tract functions as a resonator. Complex interactions are responsible for voice production.
