Abstract: A tannic acid curing agent and a preparation method thereof are provided. The present invention uses tannic acid as a raw material and the long fatty chain of 10-undecenoyl chloride is introduced into the tannic acid structure to obtain the tannic acid curing agent. The preparation method includes the following steps: mixing tannic acid, 10-undecenoyl chloride, a catalyst and a solvent for a substitution reaction to obtain undecylenyl tannic acid, in which the catalyst includes an acid binding agent and 4-diaminopyridine, and the solvent includes ethyl acetate and N,N-dimethylformamide; mixing the undecylenyl tannic acid, a mercapto compound, a solvent and a photoinitiator for an addition reaction under an ultraviolet irradiation to obtain the tannic acid curing agent, in which the mercapto compound is a mercapto carboxylic acid compound or a mercapto alcohol compound.

Abstract: A mechanical linkage system of PET and CT/MRI and a linkage scanning method thereof are disclosed. According to an example of the disclosure, the mechanical linkage system includes a PET host, a CT/MRI host, a scanning bed, and a moving system. The PET host includes a PET detector installed in a PET detector fixing plate and configured to form a positron emission computed tomography image. The CT/MRI host has a larger aperture than the PET detector. A front end of the PET host and a front end of the CT/MRI host are oppositely disposed. The scanning bed is located to an end of the CT/MRI host. The moving system is connected with at least one of the PET host or the CT/MRI host and configured to move the PET detector into or out of a scanning field of view of the CT/MRI host.

Abstract: A software development system is described that enables a user that is debugging source code to select for unoptimizing a function within the source code and to cause an edit and continue operation to be performed that produces a compiled version of the source code in which the selected function is unoptimized, while other functions remain optimized. Embodiments also enable a user to select a previously unoptimized function within the source code for re-optimizing and to cause an edit and continue operation to be performed that produces a compiled version of the source code in which the function is re-optimized. Still further embodiments enable a user to select within source code that is being developed a function for which optimization should be prevented and to cause a compiled representation of the source code to be built in which the selected function is unoptimized, while other functions are optimized.

Abstract: Methods and devices for calibrating a gain of a scintillator detector are disclosed, where a scintillation crystal of the scintillator detector includes two or more energy regions. In an example, the scintillation crystal of the scintillator detector is adopted as a radiation source for calibrating. Electric signals outputted from a rear end of the scintillator detector are collected, and actual counts of the electric signals from each of at least two energy regions of the scintillation crystal at a specified position are obtained, respectively. Then, a gain of the scintillator detector may be adjusted according to the obtained actual counts of the electric signals from the at least two energy regions.

Abstract: A method of adjusting a gain of a detector is provided in the present disclosure. According to an example, whether a gain of a photomultiplier tube in the detector meets a gain determination condition may be determined, where the gain determination condition may indicate that an absolute of a difference between the gain of the photomultiplier tube and a target gain is within a predetermined numerical range. When the gain of the photomultiplier tube does not meet the gain determination condition, a voltage of the photomultiplier tube may be adjusted, such that the gain of the photomultiplier tube meets the gain determination condition.
