Accuracy of Diagnosis of Benign Vocal Fold Lesions among Ear, Nose, and Throat Residents

Investigating the diagnostic competency of ear, nose, and throat (ENT) residents in identifying BVFLs, we hypothesize that factors such as residency year, subspecialty focus, and training center influence diagnostic accuracy.
