MPT & DSI Calculator

Maximum Phonation Time and Dysphonia Severity Index

Measures

MPT (Maximum Phonation Time): measures the duration of sustained vowel phonation. Reflects respiratory support and vocal fold efficiency.

DSI (Dysphonia Severity Index): combines 4 acoustic parameters into a single validated score for overall dysphonia severity.

  • MPT - Maximum Phonation Time
  • F0-High - Maximum fundamental frequency (from pitch glide)
  • I-Low - Minimum sustained intensity
  • Jitter Local - Cycle-to-cycle period variation
