ISUOG/ESGO Consensus Statement on ultrasound-guided biopsy in gynecological oncology.

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
The International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology (ISUOG) with the European Society of Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO) jointly developed clinically relevant and evidence-based statements on performing ultrasound-guided biopsies in gynecological oncology. The objective of this Consensus Statement is to assist clinicians, including gynecological sonographers, gynecological oncologists and radiologists, to achieve the best standards of practice in ultrasound-guided biopsy procedures. ISUOG/ESGO nominated a multidisciplinary international group of 16 experts who have demonstrated leadership in the use of ultrasound-guided biopsy in the clinical management of patients with gynecological cancer. In addition, two early-career gynecological fellows were nominated to participate from the European Network of Young Gynae Oncologists (ENYGO) within ESGO and from ISUOG. The group also included a patient representative from the European Network of Gynaecological Cancer Advocacy Groups. The document is divided into six sections: (1) general recommendations; (2) image-guided biopsy (imaging guidance, sampling methods); (3) indications and contraindications; (4) technique; (5) reporting; and (6) training and quality assurance. To ensure that the statements are evidence-based, the current literature was reviewed and critically appraised. Preliminary statements were drafted based on this review of the literature. During a conference call, the whole group discussed each preliminary statement, and a first round of voting was carried out. The group achieved consensus on all 46 preliminary statements without the need for revision. These ISUOG/ESGO statements on ultrasound-guided biopsy in gynecological oncology, together with a summary of the evidence supporting each statement, are presented herein. This Consensus Statement is supplemented by detailed narrated videoclips presenting different approaches and indications for ultrasound-guided biopsy, a patient leaflet, and an extended version which includes a detailed review of the evidence. © 2025 The Authors.
