Comparative evaluation of CortexID and VIZCalc software in brain amyloid PET: a retrospective study of 116 cases.

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
backgroundQuantitative analysis of amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) is increasingly applied in clinical and research settings; however, its consistency across software platforms remains uncertain. This study aimed to compare standardized uptake value ratio (SUVr) measurements obtained from CortexID Suite and VIZCalc, to evaluate their concordance with expert visual assessment, and to assess the concordance of Centiloid values derived from VIZCalc with the visual reference.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 116 patients who underwent
resultsSUVr values from CortexID and VIZCalc were strongly correlated (r = 0.986, p < 0.001), with a small mean difference of + 0.0397. Both platforms showed high concordance with the non-blinded visual assessment (AUC: 0.991 for CortexID; 0.989 for VIZCalc). Centiloid values also showed high agreement with the visual reference (AUC: 0.994) and were strongly correlated with SUVr values (r = 0.975 for CortexID; r = 0.965 for VIZCalc, p < 0.001). No significant difference was observed between platforms (p = 0.84).
conclusionsCortexID Suite and VIZCalc demonstrated high concordance with the non-blinded visual assessment and showed consistent quantitative trends. Both platforms can be reliably applied for amyloid burden quantification, provided that software-specific characteristics are appropriately considered.
