THE GEM-HANDLE AS CONVENIENT LABELING STRATEGY FOR BIMODAL SINGLE-DOMAIN ANTIBODY-BASED TRACERS CARRYING 99MTC AND A NEAR-INFRARED FLUORESCENT DYE FOR INTRA-OPERATIVE DECISION-MAKING

The GEM-handle as convenient labeling strategy for bimodal single-domain antibody-based tracers carrying 99mTc and a near-infrared fluorescent dye for intra-operative decision-making

Intra-operative fluorescence imaging has demonstrated its ability to improve tumor lesion identification.However, the limited tissue penetration of the fluorescent signals hinders the detection of deep-lying or occult lesions.Integrating fluorescence imaging with SPECT and/or intra-operative gamma-probing synergistically combines the deep tissue pe

Energy-Efficient Train Operation Using Nature-Inspired Algorithms

A train operation optimization by minimizing its traction energy subject to various constraints is carried out using nature-inspired evolutionary algorithms.The optimization Filters process results in switching points that initiate cruising and coasting phases of the driving.Due to nonlinear optimization formulation of the problem, nature-inspired
