L10 F 92 direct vocal-fold dissection - see Table 2

Italic lines refer to samples imaged with a laboratory conical X-ray source with absorption imaging mode, the others being imaged with a synchrotron source. F: female, M: male, Vvox: voxel size, xc: distance between sample and camera, U: generator voltage, I: scanning current intensity, δ:β: ratio of the dispersive and absorptive aspects of the wave-matter interaction, E: beam energy, np: number of X-ray 2D projections. Sample only dedicated to the “high” resolution imaging of the vocal-fold structure i.e., at a voxel size of 0.653 μm3.
