AI-Assisted segmentation and volumetric reconstruction of radiographs through multi-angular scintillation imaging.
Article in Nature communications, 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
X-ray imaging serves as a fundamental tool for non-destructive inspection. Although conventional radiography is well suited for two-dimensional imaging, it cannot provide volumetric structure. Computed tomography provides three-dimensional reconstruction but remains constrained by bulky instrumentation, high radiation exposure, and cost. Here we demonstrate a patch-type scintillator integrated with multi-stage neural network that segments and reconstructs three-dimensional volumes from sparse angular two-dimensional radiographs. The scintillator is fabricated by electrospraying cellulose nanocrystals onto a bulk cellulose matrix, followed by dip-coating of perovskite, yielding a composite with enhanced radioluminescence under X-ray excitation. This flexible film conforms to complex geometries, enabling distortion-free and multi-angle imaging. Neural networks are trained on synthetic datasets and validated on experimentally acquired avian tibiotarsus radiographs, accurately reconstructing volumetric bone structures. This approach serves as a proof-of-concept for low-dose, accessible artificial intelligence-enabled three-dimensional X-ray imaging, demonstrating the feasibility of recovering macroscopic three-dimensional morphology from as few as three sparse projections.
