A review on radiochromic film dosimetry in radiation therapy.
Review in Journal of applied clinical medical physics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Radiochromic films (RCFs) are ubiquitous in radiation oncology clinical and research settings to measure the radiation dose over a two-dimensional (2D) area due to their high spatial resolution, water-equivalency, and relative ease-of-use. Upon irradiation, the constituent monomers of the active layer of RCFs undergo polymerization, leading to a visible darkening that enables quantitative dosimetry. Quantitative RCF dosimetry requires film calibration against a reference dosimeter. Film darkening depends on various radiation-field and environmental parameters that need to be carefully considered to ensure the highest accuracy in film dosimetry. Several commercially available RCF models offer distinct dynamic dose ranges, allowing users to select appropriate options based on specific dosimetric needs. Here, we provide a review on the progress and practice of RCF dosimetry.
