Whole-Body Photoacoustic Imaging Techniques for Preclinical Small Animal Studies.
Review in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Photoacoustic imaging is a hybrid imaging technique that has received considerable attention in biomedical studies. In contrast to pure optical imaging techniques, photoacoustic imaging enables the visualization of optical absorption properties at deeper imaging depths. In preclinical small animal studies, photoacoustic imaging is widely used to visualize biodistribution at the molecular level. Monitoring the whole-body distribution of chromophores in small animals is a key method used in preclinical research, including drug-delivery monitoring, treatment assessment, contrast-enhanced tumor imaging, and gastrointestinal tracking. In this review, photoacoustic systems for the whole-body imaging of small animals are explored and summarized. The configurations of the systems vary with the scanning methods and geometries of the ultrasound transducers. The future direction of research is also discussed with regard to achieving a deeper imaging depth and faster imaging speed, which are the main factors that an imaging system should realize to broaden its application in biomedical studies.
