Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine whether anterior/anterolateral femoral head/neck contour of the hip is static or dynamic over time within the context of the cam deformity. From a previously published cohort of 200 asymptomatic patients who had a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of their hips, 23 patients were randomly selected: 10 with a cam lesion and 13 with no evidence of a cam lesion in either hip. There were 7 females and 16 males with a mean age of 37.5 years (range 30-56 years). A repeat MRI or computed tomography scan was performed. Femoral head/neck contour was assessed with alpha angle measurements at the 3 and 1:30 positions. At mean time of 5.3 years (range 2.5-7.2 years) between the two time points, the mean alpha angle for the entire cohort was not significantly different with alpha angle of 43.4°/53.7° (3:00/1:30 positions) at first visit and 46.1°/54.2° (3:00/1:30 positions) at second visit, respectively. Subdividing the cohort into cam negative and cam positive groups, there are no clinically relevant differences (i.e. <5°) between the two alpha angle measurements. Inter-observer reliability had an intra-class coefficient at 0.96 (95% CI: 0.94-0.97). Neither group of patients demonstrated clinically relevant change in the alpha angle. Consequently, screening at time of skeletal of maturity would be an efficient means of identifying individuals for a possible cam deformity.

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
