Better Cone-Beam CT Artifact Correction via Spatial and Channel Reconstruction Convolution Based on Unsupervised Adversarial Diffusion Models.
Article in Bioengineering (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. 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
Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) holds significant clinical value in image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). However, CBCT images of low-density soft tissues are often plagued with artifacts and noise, which can lead to missed diagnoses and misdiagnoses. We propose a new unsupervised CBCT image artifact correction algorithm, named Spatial Convolution Diffusion (ScDiff), based on a conditional diffusion model, which combines the unsupervised learning ability of generative adaptive networks (GAN) with the stable training characteristics of diffusion models. This approach can efficiently and stably achieve CBCT image artifact correction, resulting in clear, realistic CBCT images with complete anatomical structures. The proposed model can effectively improve the image quality of CBCT. The obtained results can reduce artifacts while preserving the anatomical structure of CBCT images. We compared the proposed method with several GAN- and diffusion-based methods. Our method achieved the highest corrected image quality and the best evaluation metrics.
