Daily dose evaluation based on corrected CBCTs for breast cancer patients: accuracy of dose and complication risk assessment.
Article in Radiation oncology (London, England), 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
objectivesThe goal of this study is to validate different CBCT correction methods to select the superior method that can be used for dose evaluation in breast cancer patients with large anatomical changes treated with photon irradiation. MATERIALS AND
methodSeventy-six breast cancer patients treated with a partial VMAT photon technique (70% conformal, 30% VMAT) were included in this study. All patients showed at least a 5 mm variation (swelling or shrinkage) of the breast on the CBCT compared to the planning-CT (pCT) and had a repeat-CT (rCT) for dose evaluation acquired within 3 days of this CBCT. The original CBCT was corrected using four methods: (1) HU-override correction (CBCT
resultsThe MAE of the CBCT-ROI was below 66 HU for all corrected CBCTs, except for the CBCT
conclusionThe analytical correction and conversion, deep learning correction and virtual correction methods can be applied for an accurate CBCT correction that can be used for dose evaluation during the course of photon radiotherapy of breast cancer patients.
