Non-circular CT orbit design for elimination of metal artifacts.
Article in Proceedings of SPIE--the International Society for Optical Engineering, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Metal artifacts are a well-known problem in computed tomography - particularly in interventional imaging where surgical tools and hardware are often found in the field-of-view. An increasing number of interventional imaging systems are capable of non-circular orbits providing one potential avenue to avoid metal artifacts entirely by careful design of the orbital trajectory. In this work, we propose a general design methodology to find complete data solution by applying Tuy's condition for data completeness. That is, because metal implants effectively cause missing data in projections, we propose to find orbital designs that will not have missing data based on arbitrary placement of metal within the imaging field-of-view. We present the design process for these missing-data-free orbits and evaluate the orbital designs in simulation experiments. The resulting orbits are highly robust to metal objects and show greatly improved visualization of features that are ordinarily obscured.
