Selecting the Best Radiology Workflow Efficiency Applications.
Article in Journal of imaging informatics in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
In the rapidly evolving digital radiology landscape, a surge in solutions has emerged including more than 500 artificial intelligence applications that have received 510 k clearance by the FDA. Moreover, there is an extensive number of non-regulated applications, specifically designed to enhance workflow efficiency within radiology departments. These efficiency applications offer tremendous opportunities to resolve operational pain points and improve efficiency for radiology practices worldwide. However, selecting the most effective workflow efficiency applications presents a major challenge due to the multitude of available solutions and unclear evaluation criteria. In this article, we share our perspective on how to structure the broad field of workflow efficiency applications and how to objectively assess individual solutions. Along the different stages of the radiology workflow, we highlight 31 key operational pain points that radiology practices face and match them with features of workflow efficiency apps aiming to address them. A framework to guide practices in assessing and curating workflow efficiency applications is introduced, addressing key dimensions, including a solution's pain point coverage, efficiency claim strength, evidence and credibility, ease of integration, and usability. We apply this framework in a large-scale analysis of workflow efficiency applications in the market, differentiating comprehensive workflow efficiency ecosystems seeking to address a multitude of pain points through a unified solution from workflow efficiency niche apps following a targeted approach to address individual pain points. Furthermore, we propose an approach to quantify the financial benefits generated by different types of applications that can be leveraged for return-on-investment calculations.
