BACKGROUND: To prove the feasibility of integrating CT urography (CTU) into Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and to analyze the impact of CTU on assigning focal tracer accumulation in the ureteric space to either ureteric excretion or metastatic disease concerning ...
BACKGROUND: Targeting epitopes derived from neo-antigens (or "neo-epitopes") represents a promising immunotherapy approach with limited off-target effects. However, most peptides predicted using MHC binding prediction algorithms do not induce a CD8 +...

A novel coronavirus, called 2019-nCoV, was recently found in Wuhan, Hubei Province of China, and now is spreading across China and other parts of the world. Although there are some drugs to treat 2019-nCoV, there is no proper scientific evidence abou...
To investigate the structure-dependent peptide mobility behavior in ion mobility spectrometry (IMS), quantitative structure-spectrum relationship (QSSR) is systematically modeled and predicted for the collision cross section Ω values of totally 162 s...
OBJECTIVE: This study evaluates the feasibility of direct scatter and attenuation correction of whole-body 68Ga-PSMA PET images in the image domain using deep learning.
