[Imaging of the musculoskeletal system using low-field magnetic resonance imaging].
Review in Der Radiologe, 2022. 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
backgroundMagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a crucial role in musculoskeletal imaging. The high prevalence and pain-related suffering of patients pose a particular challenge concerning availability and turnover times, respectively. Low-field (≤ 1.0 T) MRI has the potential to fulfill these needs. However, during the past three decades, high field systems have increasingly replaced low field systems because of their limitations in image quality. Recent technological advancements in high-performance hard- and software promise musculoskeletal imaging with adequate quality at lower field strengths for several regions and indications.
objectivesThe goal is to provide insight into the advantages and disadvantages of low-field musculoskeletal imaging, discuss the current literature, and include our first experiences with a modern 0.55 T MRI. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis review is based on research in various literature databases and our own musculoskeletal imaging experiences with a modern 0.55 T scanner.
conclusionMost publications pertaining to musculoskeletal imaging at low-field strength MRI are outdated, and studies regarding the diagnostic performance of modern low-field MRI systems are needed. These new systems may complement existing high-field systems and make MRI more accessible, even in low-income countries. From our own experience, modern low-field MRI seems to be adequate in musculoskeletal imaging, especially in acute injuries.
