Importance of quantification for the analysis of PET data in oncology: review of current methods and trends for the future.
Review in Molecular imaging and biology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 63 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
In oncology, positron emission tomography (PET) is an important tool for tumour diagnosis and staging, assessment of response to treatment and evaluation of the pharmacokinetic properties and efficacy of new drugs. Despite its quantitative potential, however, in daily clinical practice PET is used almost exclusively with 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoro-D-glucose ([(18)F]FDG) and, in addition, [(18)F]FDG data are normally assessed visually or using simple indices as the standardised uptake value (SUV). After explaining why more sophisticated quantification methods can be useful in oncology, the paper reviews the approaches that are commonly used and those available but not routinely employed. Particular emphasis is addressed to the SUV, for its importance in clinical practice. Issues specific to PET quantification in oncology and related examples are then discussed. Finally, some ideas for the development of new quantitative methods for analysing PET data in oncology and for the application of approaches already existing but not commonly employed are presented.
