Synthetic MR: Clinical applications in neuroradiology.
Review in Neuroradiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
purposeSynthetic MR is a quantitative MRI method that measures tissue relaxation times and generates multiple contrast-weighted images using suitable algorithms. The present article principally discusses the multiple dynamic multiple echo (MDME) technique of synthetic MR and briefly describes other quantitative MR sequences.
methodsUsing illustrative cases, various applications of the MDME sequence in neuroradiology are explained. The MDME sequence allows rapid quantification of tissue relaxation times in a scan duration of 5-7 minutes for full brain coverage. It also has the additional advantages of myelin quantification and automatic segmentation of brain volumes.
resultsApplications including reducing scan time, improved detection of demyelinating plaques in Multiple Sclerosis (MS), objective assessment and follow-up for brain atrophy in neurodegenerative MS and dementia cases, and applications in stroke imaging and neuro-oncology are discussed. Uses in the pediatric population, including assessment of brain development and progression of myelination in children, evaluation of white matter disorders, and evaluation of pediatric and adult epilepsy, are elaborated. Quantitative evaluation by synthetic MR is discussed, which allows homogenization and objectification of the radiology data and can serve as a valuable source for artificial intelligence and future multicentre studies. A brief discussion on the technique, other quantitative MR methods, and limitations of the MDME sequence is also presented.
conclusionThe article intends to provide an explicit and comprehensive review of the applications of synthetic MR in neuroradiology, exploring its potential as a routine sequence in daily neuroimaging practice.
