Positron range in combination with point-spread-function correction: an evaluation of different implementations for [124I]-PET imaging.
Article in EJNMMI physics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
aimTo evaluate the effect of combining positron range correction (PRC) with point-spread-function (PSF) correction and to compare different methods of implementation into iterative image reconstruction for MATERIALS AND
methodsUniform PR blurring kernels of
resultsContrast recovery improved by 2-10% and 4-37% with OSEM+PRC simplified and OSEM+PRC, respectively, depending on the sphere size of the NEMA IQ phantom. Including PSF in the reconstructions further improved contrast by 4-19% and 3-16% with the PSF+PRC simplified and PSF+PRC, respectively. The benefit of PRC was more pronounced within low-density material. OSEM-PRC and OSEM-PSF as well as OSEM-PSF+PRC in its full- and simplified implementation showed comparable noise and convergence. OSEM-PRC simplified showed comparably faster convergence but at the cost of increased image noise.
conclusionsThe combination of the PSF and PRC leads to increased contrast recovery with reduced image noise compared to stand-alone PSF or PRC reconstruction. For OSEM-PRC reconstructions, a full implementation in the reconstruction is necessary to handle image noise. For the combination of PRC with PSF, a simplified PRC implementation can be used to reduce reconstruction times.
