Characterization of the impact to PET quantification and image quality of an anterior array surface coil for PET/MR imaging.
Review in Magma (New York, N.Y.), 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
objectThe aim of this study was to determine the impact to PET quantification, image quality and possible diagnostic impact of an anterior surface array used in a combined PET/MR imaging system. MATERIALS AND
methodsAn extended oval phantom and 15 whole-body FDG PET/CT subjects were re-imaged for one bed position following placement of an anterior array coil at a clinically realistic position. The CT scan, used for PET attenuation correction, did not include the coil. Comparison, including liver SUV(mean), was performed between the coil present and absent images using two methods of PET reconstruction. Due to the time delay between PET scans, a model was used to account for average physiologic time change of SUV.
resultsOn phantom data, neglecting the coil caused a mean bias of -8.2% for non-TOF/PSF reconstruction, and -7.3% with TOF/PSF. On clinical data, the liver SUV neglecting the coil presence fell by -6.1% (± 6.5%) for non-TOF/PSF reconstruction; respectively -5.2% (± 5.3%) with TOF/PSF. All FDG-avid features seen with TOF/PSF were also seen with non-TOF/PSF reconstruction.
conclusionNeglecting coil attenuation for this anterior array coil results in a small but significant reduction in liver SUV(mean) but was not found to change the clinical interpretation of the PET images.
