Current role and future applications of image-guided interventional procedures in musculoskeletal oncology - A narrative review.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Musculoskeletal (MSK) image-guided interventional procedures have been increasingly used in and remain crucial in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal tumours. Aims: In this article, we aim to describe commonly performed interventional procedures in the subspeciality of MSK oncology drawing experience from our tertiary referral centre. Recent advances, emerging techniques and future applications of image-guided interventional procedures in the field of MSK oncology are highlighted. Material and methods: A retrospective search using the keyword 'musculoskeletal system', 'neoplasms', 'biopsy', and 'interventional radiology' was performed at our tertiary care oncology orthopaedic referral centre radiology database. The radiology images were collected from our Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) and Radiology Information System (RIS). Electronic Patient Records, histopathology laboratory records and patient characteristics were collaborated to generate this narrative experience at our centre. Results: Image-guided interventional procedures have been utilised in a spectrum of primary and secondary MSK tumours. Current applications include diagnosis of bone and soft tissue MSK neoplastic lesions with biopsies, thermal, cryotherapy and Radiofrequency ablations and augmentation procedures. Conclusion: Musculoskeletal (MSK) image-guided interventions have increasing applications in the diagnosis, management, treatment and monitoring of patients with MSK tumours. The emergence of newer imaging technologies with enhanced skills of interventional radiologists will allow a range of therapeutic MSK interventions in both effective control of primary lesions and palliative care of metastatic lesions.
