A Fast and Interactive Augmented Reality System for PET/CT-guided Intervention of Neuroblastoma.
Article in Proceedings of SPIE--the International Society for Optical Engineering, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Neuroblastoma is the most common type of extracranial solid tumor in children and can often result in death if not treated. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-invasive technique for treating tissue that is deep within the body. It avoids the use of ionizing radiation, avoiding long-term side-effects of these treatments. The goal of this project was to develop the rendering component of an augmented reality (AR) system with potential applications for image-guided HIFU treatment of neuroblastoma. Our project focuses on taking 3D models of neuroblastoma lesions obtained from PET/CT and displaying them in our AR system in near real-time for use by physicians. We used volume ray casting with raster graphics as our preferred rendering method, as it allows for the real-time editing of our 3D radiologic data. Some unique features of our AR system include intuitive hand gestures and virtual user interfaces that allow the user to interact with the rendered data and process PET/CT images for optimal visualization. We implemented the feature to set a custom transfer function, set custom intensity cutoff points, and region-of-interest extraction via cutting planes. In the future, we hope to incorporate this work as part of a complete system for focused ultrasound treatment by adding ultrasound simulation, visualization, and deformable registration.
