Approaching closed spherical, full-view detection for photoacoustic tomography.
Article in Journal of biomedical optics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
significancePhotoacoustic tomography (PAT) is a widely explored imaging modality and has excellent potential for clinical applications. On the acoustic detection side, limited-view angle and limited-bandwidth are common key issues in PAT systems that result in unwanted artifacts. While analytical and simulation studies of limited-view artifacts are fairly extensive, experimental setups capable of comparing limited-view to an ideal full-view case are lacking.
aimsA custom ring-shaped detector array was assembled and mounted to a 6-axis robot, then rotated and translated to achieve up to 3.8π steradian view angle coverage of an imaged object. APPROACH: Minimization of negativity artifacts and phantom imaging were used to optimize the system, followed by demonstrative imaging of a star contrast phantom, a synthetic breast tumor specimen phantom, and a vascular phantom.
resultsOptimization of the angular/rotation scans found ≈212 effective detectors were needed for high-quality images, while 15-mm steps were used to increase the field of view as required depending on the size of the imaged object. Example phantoms were clearly imaged with all discerning features visible and minimal artifacts.
conclusionsA near full-view closed spherical system has been developed, paving the way for future work demonstrating experimentally the significant advantages of using a full-view PAT setup.
