文摘As emerging two-dimensional(2D)materials,carbides and nitrides(MXenes)could be solid solutions or organized structures made up of multi-atomic layers.With remarkable and adjustable electrical,optical,mechanical,and electrochemical characteristics,MXenes have shown great potential in brain-inspired neuromorphic computing electronics,including neuromorphic gas sensors,pressure sensors and photodetectors.This paper provides a forward-looking review of the research progress regarding MXenes in the neuromorphic sensing domain and discussed the critical challenges that need to be resolved.Key bottlenecks such as insufficient long-term stability under environmental exposure,high costs,scalability limitations in large-scale production,and mechanical mismatch in wearable integration hinder their practical deployment.Furthermore,unresolved issues like interfacial compatibility in heterostructures and energy inefficiency in neu-romorphic signal conversion demand urgent attention.The review offers insights into future research directions enhance the fundamental understanding of MXene properties and promote further integration into neuromorphic computing applications through the convergence with various emerging technologies.
文摘Background:Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the ureter(SCU)is a highly aggressive and relatively uncommon malignant tumor of the urinary tract.Its frequency is quite low,and its prognosis is very bad when compared to other cancers of the urinary system.SCU clinical reports are still hard to come by.MRI and PEI/CT imaging of ureteral sarcomatoid cancer is presented in this case to promote diagnostic awareness and comprehension of the imaging characteristics of this uncommon illness.Method:The patient had ureteral sarcomatoid cancer,which was verified by pathological investigation after ureteroscopic biopsy.The patient’s clinical information,imaging results,surgical outcomes,and pathological findings were gathered.A retrospective study was carried out in combinationwith pertinent national and international literature.Results:An 84-year-old female patient was admitted for“left flank discomfort lasting over one month.”MRI revealed an irregular soft tissue mass in the middle-lower segment of the left ureter.T2-weighted imaging showed an unevenly slightly hyperintense signal.Diffusion-weighted imaging demonstrated restricted diffusion.Contrastenhanced imaging exhibited heterogeneous enhancement.PET/CT demonstrated significantly increased fluorodeoxyglucose metabolism in the mass with secondary left upper urinary tract obstruction.Concurrent findings included a solitary metastatic lesion in hepatic segment S6 and multiple lymph node metastases along the left common iliac and external iliac arteries.Preoperative diagnosis suggested a malignant tumor of the ureter.The patient underwent left nephroureteroscopy with biopsy,and the postoperative pathological diagnosis was ureteral sarcomatoid carcinoma.Conclusion:Ureteral sarcomatoid carcinoma is a rare,highly malignant,and aggressive tumor with nonspecific imaging features,typically presenting as an invasively growing mass.Diagnosis relies on postoperative pathology and immunohistochemical examination.MRI and PET/CT scans are valuable for preoperative localization and characterization,tumor staging,treatment planning,and postoperative follow-up.The prognosis is extremely negative.The main treatment option is radical surgery,although constant monitoring is necessary since early recurrence and metastases are frequent after surgery.

文摘The level of glutathione(GSH)is significantly associated with numerous pathological processes,thus,real-time detection of the GSH level is of significance for early diagnosis of GSH-related diseases.Herein,we developed in vivo second near-infrared(NIR-II)window fluorescence(FL)and ratiometric photoacoustic(RPA)dual-modality imaging of GSH using a GSH-activatable probe(LET-14).LET-14 was synthesized based on a rhodamine hybrid xanthene skeleton with a FL shielding 2,4-dinitrobenzene sulfonyl group that can be specifically cleaved by GSH,thus resulting in a markedly bathochromic-shift absorption,a 6.5-fold increase in NIR-II FL intensity(FL_(920))and a 13-fold increase in RPA signal(PA_(880)/PA_(705))in vitro.Intriguingly,LET-14 exhibits good selectivity and sensitivity for NIR-II FL and RPA dual-modality imaging of GSH in 4T1 tumor-bearing mouse model.Our findings develop an in vivo detection tool of GSH,which has great potential in the field of cancer diagnosis.

文摘Two-dimensional(2D)multilayer kagome materials hold significant research value for regulating kagome-related physical properties and exploring quantum effects.However,their development is hindered by the scarcity of available material systems,making the identification of novel 2D multilayer kagome candidates particularly important.In this work,three types of 2D materials with trilayer kagome lattices,namely Sc_(6)S_(5)X_(6)(X=Cl,Br,I),are predicted based on first-principles calculations.These 2D materials feature two kagome lattices composed of Sc atoms and one kagome lattice composed of S atoms.Stability analysis indicates that these materials can exist as free-standing 2D materials.Electronic structure calculations reveal that Sc_(6)S_(5)X_(6)are narrow-bandgap semiconductors(0.76–0.95 e V),with their band structures exhibiting flat bands contributed by Sc-based kagome lattices and Dirac band gaps resulting from symmetry breaking.The sulfur-based kagome lattice in the central layer contributes an independent flat band below the Fermi level.Additionally,Sc_(6)S_(5)X_(6)exhibit high carrier mobility,with hole and electron mobilities reaching up to 10^(3)cm^(2)·V^(-1)·s^(-1),indicating potential applications in low-dimensional electronic devices.This work provides an excellent example for the development of novel multilayer 2D kagome materials.

文摘The photoacoustic imaging of lipid is intrinsically constrained by the feeble nature of endogenous lipid signals,posing a persistent sensitivity challenge that demands innovative solutions.Although adopting high-efficiency excitation and detection elements may improve the imaging sensitivity to a certain extent,the application of the elements is inevitably subject to various limitations in practical applications,particularly during in vivo imaging and endoscopic imaging.In this study,we propose a multi-combinatorial approach to enhance the sensitivity of lipid photoacoustic imaging.The approach involves wavelet transform processing of one-dimensional A-line signals,gradient-based denoising of two-dimensional B-scan images,and finally,threedimensional spatial weighted averaging of the data processed by the previous two steps.This method not only significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)in distinguished feature regions of the image by around 10 dB,but also efficiently extracts weak signals with no distinct features in the original image.After processing with this method,the images acquired under single scanning were compared with those obtained under multiple scanning.The results showed highly consistent image features,with the structural similarity index increasing from 0.2 to 0.8,confirming the accuracy and reliability of the multi-combinatorial approach.

文摘Medical imaging is essential in modern health care,allowing accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning.These images,however,often demonstrate low contrast,noise,and brightness distortion that reduce their diagnostic reliability.This review presents a structured and comprehensive analysis of advanced histogram equalization(HE)-based techniques for medical image enhancement.Our review methodology encompasses:(1)classical HE approaches and related limitations in medical domains;(2)adaptive schemes like Adaptive Histogram Equalization(AHE)and Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogrma Equalization(CLAHE)and their advance variants;(3)brightnesspreserving schemes like BBHE and MMBEBHE and related algorithms;(4)dynamic and recursive histogram equalization methods incorporating DHE and RMSHE;(5)fuzzy logic-based enhancement methodologies addressing uncertainty and noise in medical images;and(6)hybrid optimization methodologies through the application of metaheuristic algorithms(World Cup Optimization,Particle Swarm Optimization,Genetic Algorithms,along with histogram-based methodologies.)There is also a comparative discussion given based on contrast improvement,image brightness preservation,noise management,and computational efficiency.Such advancements have better capabilities of improving image quality,which is more important for improved diagnosis and image analysis.

文摘Electrons in the energy range of 10–100 keV are important energetic particle components in the magnetosphere,and they play a key role in many physical processes in the magnetosphere.However,many scientific questions about these processes are still unanswered.High spatiotemporal and energy-resolution imaging detection of 10–100 keV electrons is of great significance for solving these scientific problems.The traditional space particle detection technology cannot effectively detect the medium-energy electrons in this energy range.In this project,we propose combining low-noise particle detection technology with pinhole imaging technology to achieve high-resolution imaging detection of 10–100 keV medium-energy electrons in the magnetosphere,and at the same time achieve miniaturization(≤3.2 kg and size of 150×150×170 mm)and low power consumption(≤5 W)of the instrument,which can be used for space physics research and space weather applications in the future.

文摘The unique advantage of x-ray ghost imaging(XGI)is its potential in low dose radiology.One of the practical ways to reduce the radiation exposure is to reduce the measurements while remaining sufficient image quality.Synthetic aperture x-ray ghost imaging(SAXGI)is invented to achieve megapixel XGI with limited measurements,which is expected to implement XGI simultaneously with large field of view and low radiation exposure.In this paper,we experimentally investigate the effect of measurements reduction on the spatial resolution and image quality of SAXGI with standard sample and biomedical specimen.The results with a resolution chart demonstrated that at 360 measurements,SAXGI successfully retrieved the sample image of 1960×1960 pixels with spatial resolution of 4μm.With measurement reduction,the spatial resolution deteriorates but the sparser structures are still discernable.Even with measurements reduced to 10,a spatial resolution of 10μm can still be achieved by SAXGI.A biomedical sample of a fish specimen is employed to evaluate the method and the fish image of 2000×1000 pixels with an SSIM of 0.962 is reconstructed by SAXGI with 770measurements,corresponding to an accumulative exposure reduction of more than 2 times.With the measurements reduced to 10 which corresponds to 1/160 of the accumulative radiation exposure for conventional radiology,bulky structure like the fish skeleton can still be definitely discerned and the SSIM for the reconstructed image still retained 0.9179.Results of this paper demonstrate that measurements reduction is practicable for the radiation exposure reduction of the sample,which implicates that SAXGI with limited measurements is an efficient solution for low dose radiology.

文摘Generative Adversarial Networks(GANs)have become valuable tools in medical imaging,enabling realistic image synthesis for enhancement,augmentation,and restoration.However,their integration into clinical workflows raises concerns,particularly the risk of subtle distortions or hallucinations that may undermine diagnostic accuracy and weaken trust in AI-assisted decision-making.To address this challenge,we propose a hybrid deep learning framework designed to detect GAN-induced artifacts in medical images,thereby reinforcing the reliability of AI-driven diagnostics.The framework integrates low-level statistical descriptors,including high-frequency residuals and Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix(GLCM)texture features,with high-level semantic representations extracted from a pre-trained ResNet18.This dual-stream approach enables detection of both pixel-level anomalies and structural inconsistencies introduced by GAN-based manipulation.We validated the framework on a curated dataset of 10,000 medical images,evenly split between authentic and GAN-generated samples across four modalities:MRI,CT,X-ray,and fundus photography.To improve generalizability to real-world clinical settings,we incorporated domain adaptation strategies such as adversarial training and style transfer,reducing domain shift by 15%.Experimental results demonstrate robust performance,achieving 92.6%accuracy and an F1-score of 0.91 on synthetic test data,and maintaining strong performance on real-world GAN-modified images with 87.3%accuracy and an F1-score of 0.85.Additionally,the model attained an AUC of 0.96 and an average precision of 0.92,outperforming conventional GAN detection pipelines and baseline Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)architectures.These findings establish the proposed framework as an effective and reliable solution for detecting GAN-induced hallucinations in medical imaging,representing an important step toward building trustworthy and clinically deployable AI systems.

文摘Laser wakefield accelerators(LWFAs)offer acceleration gradients up to 1000 times higher than those of conventional radio-frequency accelerators,offering a pathway to significantly more compact and cost-effective accelerator systems.This breakthrough opens up new possibilities for laboratory-scale light sources.All-optical inverse Compton scattering(AOCS)sources driven by LWFAs produce high-brightness,quasimonochromatic X rays with micrometer-scale source sizes,delivering the spatial coherence and resolution required for X-ray phase-contrast imaging(XPCI).These features position AOCS X-ray sources as promising tools for applications in biology,medicine,physics,and materials science.However,previous AOCS-based imaging studies have primarily focused on X-ray absorption imaging.In this work,we report successful experimental demonstrations of edge-enhanced in-line XPCI using energy-tunable,quasi-monochromatic AOCS X rays.With a spatial resolution of~20μm,our results clearly show the potential of high-resolution,AOCS-based XPCI applications.

文摘Brain tumours disrupt the normal functioning of the brain and,if left untreated,can invade surrounding tissues,blood vessels,and nerves,posing a severe threat.Consequently,early detection is crucial to prevent tragic outcomes.Distinguishing brain tumours through manual detection poses a significant challenge given their diverse features,such as differing shapes,sizes,and nucleus characteristics.Therefore,this research introduces an improved architecture for tumour detection named as Brain-RetinaNet,an extension of the RetinaNet model.Brain-RetinaNet is specifically designed for automated detection and identification of brain tumours in MRI images.It utilises an advanced multiscale feature fusion mechanism within the X-module,complemented by the channel attention module.The feature fusion mechanism within the X-module progressively merges features from different scales,producing enriched feature maps that encompass valuable information.At the same time,the attention module dynamically allocates optimal weights to individual channels within the feature map,enabling the network to prioritise relevant features while reducing interference from unnecessary ones.Moreover,this study employs data augmentation technique to address the limitation of a limited number of available samples.Experimental results indicate that Brain-RetinaNet outperforms existing detectors such as YOLO,SSD,Centernet,EfficientNet,and M2det for the brain tumour detection from MRI images.

文摘In recent years,the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence(AI)technology has enabled AI-assisted negative screening to significantly enhance physicians'efficiency through image feature analysis and multimodal data modeling,allowing them to focus more on diagnosing positive cases.Meanwhile,multispectral imaging(MSI)integrates spectral and spatial resolution to capture subtle tissue features invisible to the human eye,providing high-resolution data support for pathological analysis.Combining AI technology with MSI and employing quantitative methods to analyze multiband biomarkers(such as absorbance differences in keratin pearls)can effectively improve diagnostic specificity and reduce subjective errors in manual slide interpretation.To address the challenge of identifying negative tissue sections,we developed a discrimination algorithm powered by MSI.We demonstrated its efficacy using cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma(cSCC)as a representative case study.The algorithm achieved 100%accuracy in excluding negative cases and effectively mitigated the false-positive problem caused by cSCC heterogeneity.We constructed a multispectral image(MSI)dataset acquired at 520 nm,600 nm,and 630 nm wavelengths.Subsequently,we employed an optimized MobileViT model for tissue classification and performed comparative analyses against other models.The experimental results showed that our optimized MobileViT model achieved superior performance in identifying negative tissue sections,with a perfect accuracy rate of 100%.Thus,our results confirm the feasibility of integrating MSI with AI to exclude negative cases with perfect accuracy,offering a novel solution to alleviate the workload of pathologists.
