Monitoring system detects anti‑money laundering news for banks
KeAi Communications Co., Ltd.Researchers present a data‑driven media monitoring system that turns newspaper content into early‑warning risk signals for anti‑money laundering (AML) supervision. Using entity- and theme-based keywords scored with BM25 and aggregated into weekly indicators, the system flags periods requiring analyst attention. Event analysis of eight ICIJ offshore leaks (2013–2021) shows timely detection for Belgian banks; robustness checks assess machine translation and a prompt‑based alternative.

Coordination clusters as MRI contrast agents
KeAi Communications Co., Ltd.Current clinical protocols predominantly utilize mononuclear gadolinium(III) complexes as contrast agents. Recently, coordination clusters composed of multi-nuclear paramagnetic metal ions have demonstrated promisingly higher relaxation rates as MRI contrast agents and adaptable stability in various solutions, offering promising medical application prospects. This review mainly highlights such advancements, focusing on the influence of ligand selection and structural design on the relaxation rates of metal clusters as MRI contrast agents.

University of Texas at DallasUT Dallas researchers develop new imaging tool for earlier cancer detection
University of Texas at DallasUniversity of Texas at Dallas researchers have developed a micro imaging device that could be used with an endoscope to spot cancers at an earlier stage.
The technology uses LED lighting and hyperspectral imaging to capture near-infrared and ultraviolet wavelengths in addition to the visible light that a conventional camera registers. The Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science researchers published a study describing their compact prototype in the May/June issue of the Journal of Medical Imaging.
