Innovations in Image-Guided Procedures: Unraveling Robot-Assisted Non-Hepatic Percutaneous Ablation.
Review in Seminars in interventional radiology, 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
Interventional oncology is routinely tasked with the feat of tumor characterization or destruction, via image-guided biopsy and tumor ablation, which may pose difficulties due to challenging-to-reach structures, target complexity, and proximity to critical structures. Such procedures carry a risk-to-benefit ratio along with measurable radiation exposure. To streamline the complexity and inherent variability of these interventions, various systems, including table-, floor-, gantry-, and patient-mounted (semi-) automatic robotic aiming devices, have been developed to decrease human error and interoperator and intraoperator outcome variability. Their implementation in clinical practice holds promise for enhancing lesion targeting, increasing accuracy and technical success rates, reducing procedure duration and radiation exposure, enhancing standardization of the field, and ultimately improving patient outcomes. This narrative review collates evidence regarding robotic tools and their implementation in interventional oncology, focusing on clinical efficacy and safety for nonhepatic malignancies.
