Cross-Modality Registration using Bone Surface Pointcloud for Robotic Ultrasound-Guided Spine Surgery.
Article in Journal of medical robotics research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Image guidance using preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and intraoperative ultrasound (US) can improve the outcome of spine surgery. Employing a robotic US system (RUSS) allows the automated acquisition of large 3D US volumes, facilitating accurate registration. However, such registration remains challenging due to the cross-modality discrepancy. To address this issue, we present a pipeline that extracts spine pointclouds from MRI and 3D US to perform per-vertebra registration. Experiments showed a registration accuracy of 1.82 mm in terms of residual root mean square error and 7.02 mm in terms of Chamfer distance. The pipeline exhibits superior robustness to suboptimal initial conditions compared with the two baseline methods. It also demonstrated good time efficiency under real-time conditions, demonstrating the potential applicability in RUSS-guided spine surgeries.
