Effect of metallic materials on magnetic resonance image uniformity: a quantitative experimental study.

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
objectiveTo assess quantitatively the effect of metallic materials on MR image uniformity using a standardized method.
methodsSix types of 1 cm cubic metallic materials (i.e., Au, Ag, Al, Au-Ag-Pd alloy, Ti, and Co-Cr alloy) embedded in a glass phantom filled were examined and compared with no metal condition inserted as a reference. The phantom was scanned five times under each condition using a 1.5-T MR superconducting magnet scanner with an 8-channel phased-array brain coil and head and neck coil. For each examination, the phantom was scanned in three planes: axial, coronal, and sagittal using T1-weighted spin echo (SE) and gradient echo (GRE) sequences in accordance with the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) F2119-07 standard. Image uniformity was assessed using the non-uniformity index (NUI), which was developed by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), as an appropriate standardized measure for investigating magnetic field uniformity.
resultsT1-GRE images with Co-Cr typically elicited the lowest uniformity, followed by T1-GRE images with Ti, while all other metallic materials did not affect image uniformity. In particular, T1-GRE images with Co-Cr showed significantly higher NUI values as far as 6.6 cm at maximum equivalent to 11 slices centering around it in comparison with the measurement uncertainty from images without metallic materials.
conclusionWe found that MR image uniformity was influenced by the scanning sequence and coil type when Co-Cr and Ti were present. It is assumed that the image non-uniformity in Co-Cr and Ti is caused by their high magnetic susceptibility.
