Improved acceleration of phase-contrast flow imaging with magnitude difference regularization.
Article in Magnetic resonance imaging, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo develop a regularized image reconstruction algorithm for improved scan acceleration of phase-contrast (PC) flow MRI.
methodsBased on the magnitude similarity between bipolar-encoded k-space data, magnitude-difference regularization was incorporated into the conventional compressed sensing (CS) reconstruction. The gradient of the magnitude regularization was derived so the reconstruction problem can be solved using non-linear conjugate gradient with backtracking line search. Phase contrast flow data obtained in the peripheral arteries of healthy and patient subjects were retrospectively undersampled for testing the proposed reconstruction method. Three-dimensional velocity-encoded PC flow MRI was performed with prospective 4-fold undersampling for measuring arotic flow velocity in a healthy volunteer.
resultsIn the femoral arteries of healthy volunteers, the root-mean-square (RMS) errors of mean velocities were 0.56 ± 0.09 cm/s with CS-only reconstruction and 0.46 ± 0.08 cm/s with addition of magnitude regularization for three-fold acceleration; 1.34 ± 0.17 cm/s (CS only) and 1.08 ± 0.15 cm/s (magnitude regularized) for four-fold acceleration. In the iliac arteries of the patient, the RMS errors of mean velocities were 0.72 ± 0.12 cm/s and 0.56 ± 0.10 for three-fold acceleration, and 1.75 ± 0.21 and 1.24 ± 0.19 cm/s for four-fold acceleration (in the order of CS-only and magnitude regularized reconstructions). In the popliteal arteries, the RMS errors were 0.61 ± 0.10 cm/s and 0.42 ± 0.11 for three-fold acceleration, and 1.41 ± 0.19 and 1.12 ± 0.17 cm/s for four-fold acceleration. The maximum through-plane mean flow velocities were measured as 63.2 cm/s and 84.5 cm/s in ascending and descending aortas, respectively.
conclusionThe addition of magnitude-difference regularization into conventional CS reconstruction improves the accuracy of image reconstruction using highly undersampled phase-contrast flow MR data.
