Approaches to Computed Tomography Education for Radiography Students.
Review in Journal of medical radiation sciences, 2026. 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
introductionRadiography students are exposed to computed tomography (CT) education within coursework and clinical placements. To inform enhancement of CT education in university curricula, the aim of this narrative review was to explore the current published literature relating to CT teaching methods and assessment of diagnostic radiography students during university training.
methodsMedline, CINAHL, and Web of Science databases were used to search for articles published in English between 2015 and 2025. Reference lists of included studies were also searched. Data was extracted from 13 included studies and summarised into three themes: (1) CT education methods and characteristics, (2) evaluation of CT education activities: approaches and outcomes, and (3) student assessment in CT education.
resultsMost studies reported that CT education commonly involved on-campus training, with fewer studies incorporating clinical placements. Developed CT education activities commonly used a tutorial-based approach, with use of CT scanners (direct access or remote-access) and virtual reality. Evaluation of CT education activities focused on student knowledge and students' experience of the education activity. Assessment in CT is mostly based on pre-post intervention quizzes to assess knowledge and blogs for reflection.
conclusionOn-campus CT education supports CT knowledge for students, with clinical education playing an important role in furthering knowledge and skills. On-campus education benefits from guided learning, to support students' knowledge gain and confidence. CT education within clinical and academic settings, as well as how competency is achieved prior to graduation in radiography students, should be further investigated.
