This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1910 Excerpt: ...as well as the resonance of cough. Normal vocal resonance may be altered as follows by various disease changes: Exaggerated or increased. Diminished. Distant. Absent.' or It may be changed in quality i.e., bronchophony, pectoriloquy, amphoric or cavernous voice and egophony). Vocal resonance is the audible analogy of vocal fremitus which is palpable; its seat of origin is the same (the vocal cords), its method and route of transmission to the surface the same, and the conditions governing the force or degree of vocal resonance heard upon the chest surface are the same as those governing vocal fremitus. The same conditions increase or diminish both to an equal degree. Note.--You should understand that both vocal fremitus and vocal resonance are greater over their point of origin (the glottis) than at any other point upon the body surface; that no change in the lung actually increases them above their original force; and that when we say they are "increased" or "exaggerated" we mean above the normal for the region named. In absolute consolidation of considerable lung tissue each word may be heard distinctly upon the chest surface: this is called bronchophony. If the whisper is heard as distinctly as is usually the case, it is called whisper-bronchophony Pectoriloquy is an advanced degree of bronchophony. Amphoric and cavernous voice sounds occur with cavities associated with amphoric or cavernous breath sounds. Note.--Egophony will be left for a more advanced study. In some cases the whisper will give more satisfactory results than the spoken voice. Bronchophony is heard in association with bronchial breathing not with broncovesicular breathing. SECTION VII.
