Abstract
Proper patient selection for immunotherapy is critical, as certain tumor microenvironments are more permissible to therapy than others. Currently, the use of programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and microsatellite instability high and/or mismatch repair deficiency are used as biomarkers for immunotherapy response. To improve tumor characterization, methodologies are being developed to combine imaging with tumor immune environment characterization. Imaging of tumors from immunotherapy responders and nonresponders with various imaging modalities has led to the development of criteria that could predict patient response to immunotherapy. Additionally, radiomics-based artificial intelligence methods are being used to characterize tumor microenvironments to predict and evaluate immunotherapy responses, as well as to predict risk of immune-related adverse events. Molecular imaging techniques are also being developed for various modalities to observe tumor expression of immunotherapy targets, such as PD-L1 and, to confirm the target is being expressed on resident tumors. In all, the advancements of imaging techniques to define tumor immunologic characteristics will help to stratify patients who are more likely to respond to immunotherapies.

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
