Voice as an AI Biomarker of Health—Introducing Audiomics

Voice, speech, and respiratory sounds provide important clinical insights into patients’ health status. In the age of artificial intelligence (AI), patients’ audio recordings are being investigated as digital biomarkers for early detection of a broad range of conditions, including laryngeal pathology, neurological and psychological disorders, head and neck cancers, and diabetes. Besides neurologists, speech language pathologists, and internists, otolaryngologists also have unique perspectives and expertise on voice, speech, and respiratory sounds that can fuel this line of research and innovation.
