Thoracic applications of photon-counting CT: where are we after 3 years of clinical implementation?
Review in The British journal of radiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Photon-counting CT has now entered the field of clinical practice, raising expectations on the advantages that could be derived for patient management. Two main directions are under scrutinity for the medical community at large. At the present time, most attention is directed towards the confirmation of the expected improvement in image quality and the evaluation of its consequences in terms of decision-making. In parallel, new perspectives in the field of functional imaging as well as for spectral imaging are topics of active research that have not been translated in clinical practice. This review article provides an update on the current use of this technology, based on the last 3 years of clinical investigations. Early clinical experience is summarized, focusing on adult respiratory indications.
