A Practical Approach to the Evaluation and Diagnosis of Pediatric CNS Tumors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Tumor classification in neuropathology is a dynamic and complex topic, with many changes emerging in the past 5 years, up to and including the 2021 publication of the 5th edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Tumours of the Central Nervous System (CNS). For pediatric pathologists who will encounter brain tumors with varying frequency, it is important to understand the principles of these classification updates, particularly the inclusion of molecular genetic features and development of a layered, or integrated, diagnosis. This issue of Perspectives in Pediatric Pathology is dedicated to the examination of pediatric brain tumors, and features articles on intraoperative diagnosis and updated information on molecular-based classification for pediatric glial, glioneuronal, ependymal, and embryonal tumors of the CNS.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
