1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Current clinical practice in imaging medical physics is concerned with quality assurance, image processing and analysis, radiation dosimetry, risk assessment and radiation protection, and in-house training and research. Physicist workloads are projected to increase as medical imaging technologies become more sophisticated. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rising technology with potential to assist medical physicists in their work. Exploration of AI integration into imaging medical physicist workloads is limited. In this review paper, we provide an overview of AI techniques, outline their potential usage in imaging medical physics, and discuss the limitations and challenges to clinical adoption of AI technologies.
