Abstract
The use of an amorphous selenium (a-Se) based direct-detection active matrix flat-panel imager (AMFPI) is studied for megavoltage imaging. The detector consists of a 1.2 mm copper front plate and 200 microm a-Se layer, and has a 85 microm pixel pitch. The Modulation Transfer Function (MTF), Noise Power Spectrum (NPS), and Detective Quantum Efficiency (DQE) are measured for 6 and 15 MV photon beams. A theoretical expression for the DQE is derived using a recently developed formalism for nonelementary cascade stages. A comparison of theory with experiment is good for the 6 and 15 MV beams. The model is used to explore the DQE for more typical pixel sizes. The results indicate that with proper modifications, such as a larger a-Se thickness, a direct flat-panel AMFPI is a very promising detector for megavoltage imaging.

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
