Popis: Abstract The entire glottis has mostly been the focus in the tracking of the vocal folds, both manually and automatically. From a treatment point of view, the various regions of the glottis are of specific interest. The aim of the study was to test if it was possible to supplement an existing convolutional neural network (CNN) with post-network calculations for the localization and quantification of posterior glottal gaps during phonation, usable for vocal fold function analysis of e.g. laryngopharyngeal reflux findings. 30 subjects/videos with insufficient closure in the rear glottal area and 20 normal subjects/videos were selected from our database, recorded with a commercial high-speed video setup (HSV with 4000 frames per second), and segmented with an open-source CNN for validating voice function. We made post-network calculations to localize and quantify the 10% and 50% distance lines from the rear part of the glottis. The results showed a significant difference using the algorithm at the 10% line distance between the two groups of p
