Dose reduction in cone-beam CT scanning for intracranial stent deployment before coil embolization of intracranial wide-neck aneurysms.
Article in Interventional neuroradiology : journal of peritherapeutic neuroradiology, surgical procedures and related neurosciences, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeFlat panel detector (FD)-equipped angiography machines are increasingly used for neuro-angiographic imaging. During intracranial stent-assisted coil embolization procedures, it is very important to clearly and quickly visualize stent shape after deployment in the vessel. It is necessary to quickly visualize stents by cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). The aim of this study was to compare CBCTs at 10 and 20 s, and to confirm that this method is useful for neuro-endovascular treatment procedures. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe treated 30 patients with wide-necked intracranial aneurysms with a flexible, self-expanding neurovascular stent and subsequent aneurysm embolization with platinum micro-coils. We performed the CBCT after stent deployment. We compared the 10 s and 20 s CBCTs, using the full width one-half maximum (FWHM) visualization.
resultsAccurate stent placement with subsequent coil occlusion of the aneurysms was feasible in all patients. Stent struts were clearly visualized on both 10 s and 20 s CBCTs. Importantly, 10 s CBCT can reduce the radiation dose by about 42%, compared with 20 s CBCT. Performing 10 s CBCT with a 14% dilution of the contrast medium may significantly improve image acquisition during stent-assisted coil embolization.
conclusionsReduced-dose, 10 s CBCT can visualize stents in clinical cases, while significantly reducing radiation exposure.
