Effect of Magnetic Resonance Imaging on the Motion Accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Imaging-compatible Focused Ultrasound Robotic System.
Article in Journal of medical physics. 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
Purpose: The current study provides insights into the challenges of safely operating a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) robotic system in a high-field MRI scanner in terms of robotic motion accuracy. Materials and Methods: Grid sonications were carried out in phantoms and excised porcine tissue in a 3T MRI scanner using an existing MRgFUS robotic system. Fast low-angle shot-based magnetic resonance thermometry was employed for the intraprocedural monitoring of thermal distribution. Results: Strong shifting of the heated spots from the intended points was observed owing to electromagnetic interference (EMI)-induced malfunctions in system's operation. Increasing the slice thickness of the thermometry sequence to at least 8 mm was proven an efficient method for preserving the robotic motion accuracy. Conclusions: These findings raise awareness about EMI effects on the motion accuracy of MRgFUS robotic devices and how they can be mitigated by employing suitable thermometry parameters.
