Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Treatment planning standardization efforts were made for the Stereotactic Radiosurgery(SRS) program at the Jewish General Hospital, Montreal. A standardized dose objective template for SRS was made in collaboration with physicians in our clinic. A web based platform was made for radiotherapy research and data analysis. The web platform was made with considerations for ease of distribution and customizability. A plan report module was made for the web platform to automatically analyze dose statistics and generate SRS plan reports. The plan report module was well received by dosimetrists in our clinic and reduced the labour required in plan evaluation. A total of 35 approved treatment plans were imported into the web application for analysis. A quantitative metric, Quality Index (QI), was developed to measure SRS plan compliance to the standardized plan evaluation template. The results show increased average QI and decreased QI variation between pre-release and post-release of the web application. The validation of QI as a quality indicator of a treatment plan warrants further study.

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.
