Abstract
BACKGROUND AND METHOD: This paper reviews the current status of radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of colorectal liver metastases. Relevant studies with at least ten patients that reported rates of complete tumour ablation, local recurrence, or survival from 1 to 5 years after treatment were included in the review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Only six studies that reported at least 3-year survival were identified, with results ranging from 37 to 58 per cent. Some of these figures are promising, given that the patients were considered to have unresectable disease. However, available evidence is limited and hepatic resection remains the standard of care when feasible; radiofrequency ablation cannot be considered an equivalent. Radiofrequency ablation does, however, appear to have a role in treating unresectable disease, and may also be used in conjunction with resection to extend its limits.

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
