Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this paper we describe techniques for measuring the dimensions and position reproducibility of an 192Ir brachytherapy stepping source. Measurements were carried out using a 0.25x10x152 mm3 collimator placed in front of a detector of our own design. The brachytherapy source was translated past the collimator in 0.025 mm increments using a stepper motor. The source was found to be 3.58 mm long and 0.69 mm wide, which is in good agreement with the manufacturer's values of 3.5x0.6 mm2. The source position was reproducible to within 0.12 mm.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
