Abstract
    The iodine-rich Chinese herbal medicine has been applied to treat thyroid diseases effectively for thousands of years, though excessive iodine intake leads to various thyroid diseases. Accurate and effective determination of iodine is of great importance for clinicians to identify the iodine content and to choose appropriate herbal medicine in treating Yingbing. Nowadays, effective analytical methods for iodine content in herbal medicine include spectrophotometry methods, titration methods, the inductively coupled plasma mass-spectrometer methods (ICP-MS), among those, ICP-MS has been described as fast, accurate and low detection limit for the quantification of herbal medicine. Clinicians need to select appropriate herbal medicine according to the iodine content,and combine diseases differentiation with syndrome differentiation in clinical application, instead of refusing iodine-rich herbal medicine in treating graves' disease.
