Whole-Body Dynamic Positron Emission and Computed Tomography (WBD-PET/CT): Latest Developments, Challenges and Opportunities.
Review in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Whole-body dynamic positron emission tomography/computed tomography (WBD-PET/CT) has transformed medical imaging, enabling the fusion between (i) detailed anatomical maps of the human body and (ii) quantitative multi-parametric functional maps of specific biochemical and physiological processes across the human body beyond the semi-quantitative limitations of static PET/CT imaging. Latest developments in systems hardware, particularly with the introduction of long-axial-field-of-view (LAFOV) and Time-of-Flight (TOF) PET scanners and low-dose CT scanners, and in data analysis, primarily with direct parametric PET image reconstruction and Artificial Intelligence, offer unprecedented opportunities towards the wide clinical adoption of the superior quantitative accuracy and precision of WBD-PET/CT imaging overcoming current challenges, such as data acquisition complexity and long scan durations. This review aims to summarize the latest developments, current challenges, and emerging opportunities in WBD-PET/CT, emphasizing its potential to broaden the diagnostic and theranostic role of PET/CT in clinical practice.
