Monitoring blood oxygen state in muscle microcirculation with transverse relaxation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Oxygen uptake from the microcirculation is a direct measure of tissue function. Magnetic resonance is capable of detecting differences between oxygenated and deoxygenated blood due to the paramagnetic properties of deoxyhemoglobin. At the level of the microcirculation, however, imaging methods cannot directly visualize the vessels. Instead, bulk MR parameters are investigated for their ability to monitor blood oxygen saturation (%O(2)) changes in the microcirculation of tissue, specifically skeletal muscle. Experiments in an in vitro model verified the feasibility of detecting changes in exponential decay signals, and also verified the prediction of only two distinct decay components. Experiments in a rabbit model demonstrate that T(2)' and monoexponential T(2) decay are not sensitive to blood oxygen changes, but that the long-T(2) component in a biexponential fit is correlated to the blood oxygen state. Assuming a two-pool model for water protons in muscle, and with knowledge of the T(2)-%O(2) relation, estimates of the microcirculation blood oxygen state can be made with some reasonable assumptions.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
