Abstract
In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the susceptibility-based contrast provides a way to amplify the effects of a magnetic microparticle, whereas its volume is largely inferior to the spatial resolution of the system. This concept presents an approach to visualization by means of susceptibility artifact using ferromagnetic microparticles. In this work, the amount of the susceptibility artifact was investigated using a simulation model and in vitro experiments on stainless steel microspheres measuring 40, 20 and 15 microm in diameter. The results showed that using a clinical MRI system, a single 15 microm microsphere is detectable in gradient-echo scans. The extent of the susceptibility artifact was found to be related to the scan parameters and the particles' sizes. Since the same ferromagnetic microparticle can be used for MRI-based propulsion, these results suggest several potential applications for navigable agents and microrobots involved in therapy, diagnostics, and imaging inside the microvascular network of the human body.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
