AI in Musculoskeletal Imaging: An End-to-End Perspective.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly reshaping musculoskeletal (MSK) imaging across the entire imaging pathway. This narrative review summarizes current AI applications in MSK radiology across four domains: acquisition and reconstruction, detection and triage, characterization and quantification, and prognosis and decision support. AI-based reconstruction has enabled faster MRI acquisitions, improved denoising and artifact reduction, and supported low-dose CT imaging while preserving diagnostic quality. Fracture detection and triage currently represent the most mature clinical applications, particularly in emergency settings. AI is also promoting a shift from qualitative interpretation to quantitative imaging phenotyping through automated assessment of body composition, cartilage, bone density, degenerative spine disease, skeletal maturity, and lesion heterogeneity. Emerging applications in prognostic modeling, implant evaluation, and multimodal risk stratification remain promising but less mature. Broader clinical implementation is still limited by restricted interpretability, dataset bias, insufficient prospective validation, regulatory complexity, and unresolved medico-legal issues. Overall, AI should be viewed as a tool to augment, not replace, radiological expertise.
