Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A 32-year-old woman presented for an 18 F-FDG PET/CT scan for a lung nodule, which demonstrated background uptake. Incidentally, there was a focus of moderate-to-intense uptake in the right lung with no CT correlate. Repeat imaging 55 minutes later demonstrated resolution of this uptake, confirming a diagnosis of iatrogenic FDG-embolus, or "hot-clot" artifact. Most reported cases perform repeat radiotracer injection and imaging in the following days to confirm this artifact. This case illustrates that FDG-emboli can resolve on delayed imaging within an hour, and if so, repeat acquisition with a separate injection may be avoided, lowering radiation exposure for the patient.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
