Exploring the potential clinical application of CEST MRI in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Motivation: CEST MRI has potential to image the molecular changes in the brain of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Goal(s): Our objective was to evaluate the efficacy of CEST MRI in imaging AD and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or non-AD dementia patients at 3T. Approach: CEST MRI scans were conducted for 40 healthy volunteers and 22 MCI/AD/non-AD dementia patients. Other clinical assessments include PET scans to detect the amyloid plaques and Montreal Cognitive Assessment Hong Kong version (HK-MoCA) to evaluate the cognitive function. Results: CEST revealed significant differences between HC and patient groups and exhibited strong correlations with the HK-MoCA score. Impact: CEST revealed significant differences between HC and MCI/AD and exhibited strong correlations with the HK-MoCA score. CEST MRI has potential to detect molecular changes in brain, providing additional information for AD diagnosis in clinical MRI settings.

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.
