Background: Up to 50% of clinical recurrences after curative-intent prostate cancer radiation are intraprostatic radiorecurrences (IPRR). Salvage local therapy (SLT) is increasingly offered, particularly as focal SLT, to reduce toxicity due to prior radiation. Limited data exist on the relative value of MRI, PET/CT, and biopsy on SLT target delineation.

We convened teams of clinicians, medical and engineering students, and technical professionals (80 participants total) to stress-test models with real-world clinical cases and categorize inappropriate responses along axes of safety, privacy, hallucinations/accuracy, and bias. Six medically-trained reviewers re-analyzed prompt-response pairs and added qualitative annotations.

Recent advancements have focused on developing functional PDMS composites by integrating various functional fillers, including polymers, ceramics, and metals, for advanced applications such as electronics, medical devices, and aerospace. Consequently, there is a growing need to investigate PDMS composites to achieve higher filler loadings offering enhanced mechanical performance.
