Abstract
Tomotherapy, a novel radiotherapy technique, uses narrow fan beams for cancer patient treatment. Photon energy spectra for a rectangular 10 x 1 cm2 photon beam were analyzed in central axis and penumbra regions at depths of 3 to 10 cm in a water phantom. A 6 MV beam of a Varian 2100C/D Linear Accelerator was modeled using BEAM99 Monte Carlo calculations to simulate energy transport in a water phantom. Arrays of 4 x 2 mm2 scoring regions were arranged to cover the central axis and penumbra areas. Radiation quality factors were calculated based on dose-mean linear energy transfer. Although there appears to be a trend towards higher quality factor values in the penumbra area, this change is fairly small, at most 3% in penumbra region. We conclude that change in radiation quality is not likely to be an issue in a tomotherapeutic approach when 6 MV x rays are used.

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
