A review of image-guided radiotherapy.
Review in Radiological physics and technology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) is in the midst of a strong development and implementation cycle, stimulated by pioneering work performed in Japan. We present a review of the rationale, technology, and methodology of image guidance, as well as an overview of current work in IGRT at the Massachusetts General Hospital. The technology is rapidly evolving, and synergisms between the various acquisition approaches are converging to provide unparalleled information on target and normal tissue location and motion. With these new approaches to patient localization, we expect improved clinical results to be forthcoming.
