Purpose: Somatostatin receptor (SSTR)-PET is crucial for effective treatment stratification of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs). In highly proliferating or poorly differentiated NENs, dual-tracer approaches using additional [F]FDG PET can effectively identify SSTR-negative disease, usually requiring separate imaging sessions. We evaluated the feasibility of a one-day dual-tracer imaging protocol with a low activity [F]FDG PET followed by an SSTR-PET using the recently introduced [F]SiFAlin-TATE tracer in a long axial field-of-view (LAFOV) PET/CT scanner and its implications in patient management.

Nowadays, performance studies on the amperometric total residual oxidant (TRO) sensor are only in the bench test stage and have not been conducted under specific maritime conditions with Ballast Water Management System (BWMS). In this study, the application of the amperometric TRO sensor in land-based biological efficacy (BE) testing, operation and maintenance (O&M) testing, as well as shipboard (SB) testing, was explored by comparing with the existing di-phenylene-diamine (DPD) TRO sensor. The results showed that the average TRO measurement deviation between the amperometric sensor and the DPD sensor was within ±10% in valid BE test cycles and the O&M testing exceeding 47 operating hours.

The persistent organic radical 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyloxyl (TEMPO) protects its NO radical center by four methyl groups. Two of them are arranged tightly (t) on one side of the six-membered puckered heterocycle, and the other two more openly (o) on the other side. It is shown by OH stretching infrared spectroscopy in heated supersonic jet expansions that the hydrogen bond and aromatic ring of a first solvating benzyl alcohol have almost no preference for either side.

Inverse vulcanization (IV) enables the production of sustainable polymer from sulfur waste, offering hydrophobic, fluorine-free, and superhydrophobic coatings. However, these materials need adhesion improvements for enhanced durability. This study has developed an epoxy-, fluorine-, and metal-free superhydrophobic coating using the spray-coating of carbon nanofibers (CNFs), silica nanoparticles, and IV polymers on glass.

Purpose: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) Positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) surpasses conventional MRI (cMRI) in prostate cancer (PCa) evaluation. Our objective is to evaluate correlation of quantitative parameters in PCa using Fluorine-18 (F-18) PSMA-1007 PET/MRI and their potential for predicting metastases.
Methods: This retrospective study included 51 PCa patients.
