Performance evaluation of two interventional fluoroscope suites for cardiovascular imaging.

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
Interventional cardiology involves catheter-based treatment of heart disease, generally through fluoroscopically guided interventional procedures. Patients can be subject to considerable radiation dose due to prolonged fluoroscopy time and radiographic exposure, and therefore efforts to minimize patient dose should always be undertaken. Developing standardized, effective quality control programs for these systems is a difficult task owing to cross-vendor differences and automated control of imaging protocols. Furthermore, analyses of radiation dose should be performed in the context of its associated effects on image quality. The aim of the study is to investigate radiation dose and image quality in two fluoroscopic systems used for interventional cardiology procedures. Image quality was assessed in terms of spatial resolution and modulation transfer function, signal-to-noise and contrast-to-noise ratios, and spatial-temporal resolution of fluoroscopy and cineradiography images with phantoms simulating various patient thicknesses under routine cardiology protocols. The entrance air kerma (or air kerma rate) was measured and used to estimate entrance surface dose (or dose rate) in the phantoms.
