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

Medical imaging is undergoing a transformation driven by the advent of new, highly effective, machine learning techniques paired with increases in computational capabilities (Cheng et al. 2021; Gilson et al. 2023; Almeida et al. 2024; Krishna et al. 2024). These advanced algorithms have the potential to improve disease detection, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment outcomes. However, the complexity of machine learning models, the large amounts of curated and annotated data required by some methods, and the potential for bias and error make it challenging for individuals to safely and effectively leverage these methods (Lin et al. 2024; Guo et al. 2024; Xu et al. 2024; Linguraru et al. 2024; Wood et al. 2019). To address these challenges, the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM), American College of Radiology (ACR), Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), and Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) have worked together to develop a syllabus detailing a recommended set of competencies for medical imaging professionals interacting with these systems. This guide is aimed at four different personas: users of AI systems, purchasers of AI systems, individuals who provide clinical expertise during the development of AI systems ("clinical collaborators"), and developers of AI systems.1 This is a syllabus, not a curriculum, and is intentional in this scope. Recognizing that individuals may benefit from different presentations of the same material, this work enumerates a series of relevant competencies but does not prescribe, nor offer, a method of instruction (Schuur, Rezazade Mehrizi, and Ranschaert 2021; Garin et al. 2023). By addressing the task-specific demands of each role, this guide will enable medical imaging professionals to utilize machine learning systems more safely and effectively, ultimately improving patient care and outcomes.
