How to evaluate incidental extracardiac findings on hybrid PET and SPECT/CT imaging?
Review in European heart journal. Imaging methods and practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cardiac SPECT-CT and PET-CT studies often have clinically actionable non-cardiac pathologies, making thorough interpretation critical. The American Society of Nuclear Cardiology (ASNC) emphasizes importance of reviewing both cardiac and extracardiac regions to ensure that significant incidental findings are not overlooked. Although CT images used for attenuation correction are often low in resolution and lack diagnostic detail, they can still reveal incidental findings that warrant further evaluation with dedicated imaging. In this manuscript, we highlight clinically relevant extracardiac and limited upper abdominal findings that may be of value to the interpreting physicians.
