One-step inversion algorithms for spectral CT, with application to dynamic Cone Beam CT [PDF]
Dual Energy Cone Beam Computed Tomography (DE-CBCT) is a promising technique for several medical applications, including dynamic angiography. Recently, a dynamical two-step method has been proposed : first, the water and iodine projections are computed from the multi-energy sinograms, then, a dynamic image of the iodine contrast is reconstructed using ...

Absolute Frequency Atlas from 915 nm to 985 nm based on Laser Absorption Spectroscopy of Iodine [PDF]
This article reports on laser absorption spectroscopy of iodine gas between 915 nm and 985 nm. This wavelength range is scanned utilizing a narrow linewidth and mode-hop-free tunable diode-laser whose frequency is actively controlled using a calibrated wavelength meter.

Effect of pressure on the dynamics of iodine defects in MAPI: An atomistic simulation [PDF]
The diffusion of iodine defects has been considered the most important degradation mechanism of methylammonium lead iodine (MAPI) in solar cells. The present study demonstrates the importance of the pressure inside this material on the dynamics of iodine defects, using molecular dynamics simulations.

Iodine and thyroid function [PDF]
Severe iodine deficiency causes hypothyroidism that results in impaired somatic growth and motor development in children. Mild and moderate iodine deficiencies cause multifocal autonomous growth of thyroid, which results in thyrotoxicosis.
