1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 combines high optical absorption contrast and deep acoustic penetration, and can reveal structural, molecular, and functional information about biological tissue non-invasively. Due to practical restrictions, photoacoustic imaging systems often face various challenges, such as complex system configuration, long imaging time, and/or less-than-ideal image quality, which collectively hinder their clinical application. Machine learning has been applied to improve photoacoustic imaging and mitigate the otherwise strict requirements in system setup and data acquisition. In contrast to the previous reviews of learned methods in photoacoustic computed tomography (PACT), this review focuses on the application of machine learning approaches to address the limited spatial sampling problems in photoacoustic imaging, specifically the limited view and undersampling issues. We summarize the relevant PACT works based on their training data, workflow, and model architecture. Notably, we also introduce the recent limited sampling works on the other major implementation of photoacoustic imaging, i.e., photoacoustic microscopy (PAM). With machine learning-based processing, photoacoustic imaging can achieve improved image quality with modest spatial sampling, presenting great potential for low-cost and user-friendly clinical applications.
