Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging serves as one of the most competent methods for the diagnosis of various malignancies, such as lung tumor. However, with an elevation in the utilization of PET scan, radiologists are overburdened considerably. Consequently, a new approach of “computer-aided diagnosis” is being contemplated to curtail the heavy workloads. In this article, we propose a multiscale Mask Region–Based Convolutional Neural Network (Mask R-CNN)–based method that uses PET imaging for the detection of lung tumor. First, we produced 3 models of Mask R-CNN for lung tumor candidate detection. These 3 models were generated by fine-tuning the Mask R-CNN using certain training data that consisted of images from 3 different scales. Each of the training data set included 594 slices with lung tumor. These 3 models of Mask R-CNN models were then integrated using weighted voting strategy to diminish the false-positive outcomes. A total of 134 PET slices were employed as test set in this experiment. The precision, recall, and F score values of our proposed method were 0.90, 1, and 0.95, respectively. Experimental results exhibited strong conviction about the effectiveness of this method in detecting lung tumors, along with the capability of identifying a healthy chest pattern and reducing incorrect identification of tumors to a large extent.

The solvothermal reaction of 2-nitro-[1,1′‐biphenyl]‐4,4′‐dicarboxylic acid (H2bpdcNO2) with Zn(NO3)2·6H2O in DMF solvent does not give a functionalised variant of IRMOF-9. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows the major initial product of this reaction, WUF-21 (WUF=Wollongong University Framework), is a porous interpenetrated diamondoid metal–organic framework (MOF) with a secondary building unit that ‘doubly straps’ eight bridging bpdcNO2 ligands in a distorted tetrahedral shape around an unusual pentazinc core. A second porous MOF phase (WUF-23) containing a large and novel dodecazinc secondary building unit forms in the same reaction and eventually predominates in solutions containing formate anion, which arises from the hydrolysis of DMF. Doping the starting ligand with [1,1′‐biphenyl]‐4,4′‐dicarboxylic acid (H2bpdc) provides a facile way to grow nitro-functionalised IRMOF-9, hereafter denoted as WUF-22, where the dopant is carried through into the product. Activated WUF-22 is a microporous solid with an apparent Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area of 2497m2g−1, which matches well with geometric surface area calculations. The CO2 adsorption properties of WUF-22 are reported.

A new family of microporous anionic rare earth (RE) MOFs based on a hexanuclear (RE)6 secondary building unit along with a post-synthetic ion-exchange method to enhance the metal ion sensing capability of anionic MOFs are reported.
