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

Imaging underpins nearly every stage of radiation therapy, yet the images obtained closest to treatment delivery are often the least reliable. Cone-beam CT is degraded by scatter artifacts and inaccurate Hounsfield unit values, whereas on-treatment MRI is limited by time constraints that preclude standard protocols. Generative artificial intelligence provides new solutions to these limitations. This review examines three areas of direct impact: cross-modality image synthesis, in which diffusion models generate CT-quality images foundation model-based segmentation and target delineation, where large-scale pretrained models generalize across modalities without task-specific retraining and multimodal architectures improve delineation by integrating imaging with clinical text; and generative approaches to post-treatment assessment. Persistent challenges, including image hallucinations, algorithmic biases, and data privacy, must be addressed before these tools can be deployed safely.
