Abstract
Abstract This retrospective and exploratory study investigated the efficiency of the 3T perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at the classification of MS lesion subtypes. For the MS lesion subtype classification, firstly, it was necessary to segment all MS lesions. Therefore, a Bayesian classifier based on the adaptive mixture method was used to segment all lesions, and an artificial neural network (ANN) employed a multi‐layer Perceptron as a subtype classifier. The Bayesian classifier accomplished the segmentation of lesions using Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery automatically, and the ANN part was used as a subtype classifier that worked based on extracted information from perfusion MRI (i.e. Mean Transit Time and Cerebral Blood Volume maps) along with the intensity information of the conventional multi‐channel MRI in segmented lesions. Adding 3‐Tesla perfusion MRI to the proposed model for the subtype classification led to an increment of about 7% and 13% in the sensitivity of acute and chronic lesion classifications, respectively. The sensitivity of T 2 lesions did not meaningfully change. The overall accuracy of the classification for acute, chronic, and T 2 lesion classifications was 96.1%, 90.5%, and 92.9%, respectively. The proposed architectures reached high sensitivity in discrimination between MS lesion subtypes when 3T perfusion MRIs were used.

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
