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

3D reconstruction of cerebral vasculature from 2D biplanar projections could significantly improve diagnosis and treatment planning. We introduce a novel approach to tackle this challenging task by initially backprojecting the two projections, a process that traditionally results in unsatisfactory outcomes due to inherent ambiguities. To overcome this, we employ a U-Net approach trained to resolve these ambiguities, leading to significant improvement in reconstruction quality. The process is further refined using a Maximum A Posteriori strategy with a prior that favors continuity, leading to enhanced 3D reconstructions. We evaluated our approach using a comprehensive dataset comprising segmentations from approximately 700 MR angiography scans, from which we generated paired realistic biplanar DRRs. Upon testing with held-out data, our method achieved an 80% Dice similarity w.r.t the ground truth, superior to existing methods. Our code and dataset are available at https://github.com/Wapity/3DBrainXVascular.
