A 2D antiscatter grid and scatter sampling based CBCT method for online dose calculations during CBCT guided radiation therapy of pelvis.
Article in ArXiv, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Online dose calculations before radiation treatment have applications in dose delivery verification, plan adaptation, and treatment planning. We propose a novel CBCT imaging pipeline to enhance accuracy. Our approach aims to improve HU accuracy in CBCT images for more precise dose calculations. A quantitative CBCT pipeline was implemented, combining data correction strategies and scatter rejection, achieving high CT number accuracy. We evaluated the pipeline's effect using pelvis anatomy phantoms and found that dosimetric errors in quantitative CBCT-based dose calculations were minimal. In contrast, clinical CBCT and high-performance ASG CBCT-based plans showed significant errors. The proposed quantitative CBCT pipeline offers comparable dose calculation accuracy to the gold-standard planning CT, eliminating the need for density overrides and enabling precise dose delivery monitoring or online plan adaptations in radiation therapy.
