(eng): Videokymography is a novel medical imaging method used in laryngology and phoniatrics for observation and diagnosis of vocal fold vibrations. The amount and the quality of the data hamper manual feature extraction. A computer-assisted extraction could facilitate the diagnostic process. The proposed solution offers a software tool for data enhancement and extraction of typical characteristics of vocal folds vibrations designed by experts. The proposed methodology is based on digital image processing methods, namely image denoising, image segmentation, and object detection. Such approach enables to reflect specific features of videokymographic images and extracted vocal fold parameters. We have tested the proposed solutions on a representative set of videokymographic data. The comparison of the achieved results with the visually detected features proved the method applicability. The algorithms were implemented into the VKFD (videokymography feature detection) software.
