1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeIn this study, we propose a rapid acquisition for MR-based attenuation correction (MRAC) in positron emission tomography (PET)/MR imaging, in which an ultrashort echo time (UTE) image and an out-of-phase echo image are obtained within a single rapid scan (35 s) at high spatial resolution (1 mm

methodsIn dual-echo ramped hybrid encoding (dRHE), a UTE echo is directly followed by a second out-of-phase echo, in which hybrid spatial encoding combining single-point imaging and 3-dimensional radial frequency encoding is used to improve the quality of both images. Two-point Dixon reconstruction is used to estimate fat- and water-separated images, and UTE images are used to estimate bone. Air and bone segmentation is improved by using multiple UTE images with an advanced hybrid-encoding scheme that allows reconstruction of multiple UTE images. To evaluate the proposed method, dRHE-MRAC PET/MR brain imaging was performed in 10 subjects. Dice coefficients and PET reconstruction errors relative to CT-based attenuation correction were compared with existing system MRAC approaches.

resultsIn dRHE-MRAC, the Dice coefficients for soft tissue, air, and bone were respectively 0.95 ± 0.01, 0.62 ± 0.06, and 0.78 ± 0.05, which was a significantly improved result compared with existing approaches. In most brain regions, dRHE-MRAC showed significantly reduced PET error (less than 1%) with P values less than 0.05.

conclusionsDual-echo ramped hybrid encoding enables rapid and robust imaging for MRAC with a very rapid acquisition. Magn Reson Med 79:2912-2922, 2018. © 2017 International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine.
