Abstract
PURPOSE: To evaluate the dose-time dependences of structural changes occurring in collagen within 24 hours to three months after gamma-irradiation at doses from 2-40 Gy in vivo. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Rat's tail tendon was chosen as in vivo model, with its highly ordered collagen structure allowing the changes to be interpreted unambiguously. Macromolecular level (I) was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC); fibers and bundles level (II) by laser scanning microscopy (LSM), and bulk tissue microstructural level (III) by cross-polarization optical coherence tomography (CP-OCT). RESULTS: For (I), the formation of molecular cross-links and breaks appeared to be a principal mechanism of collagen remodeling, with the cross-links number dependent on radiation dose. Changes on level (II) involved primary, secondary and tertiary bundles splitting in a day and a week after irradiation. Bulk collagen microstructure (III) demonstrated early widening of the interference fringes on CP-OCT images observed to occur in the tendon as result of this splitting. At all three levels, the observed collagen changes demonstrated complete remodeling within ∼ a month following irradiation. CONCLUSION: The time course and dose dependencies of the observed collagen changes at different levels of its hierarchy further contribute to elucidating the role of connective tissue in the radiotherapy process.

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
