Accelerated radiotherapy pathways: a systematic review on same-day planning and treatment in radiation oncology.
Review in Clinical and translational radiation oncology, 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
Introduction and background: Same-day radiotherapy, integrating consultation, simulation, planning, and treatment within a single day, is an emerging approach in radiation oncology. Advances in imaging integration, automation, and adaptive planning have enabled shorter timelines between consultation and treatment initiation, but prospective clinical evidence remains limited. This systematic review evaluates indications, feasibility, treatment accuracy, and patient satisfaction with same-day radiotherapy. Materials and methods: A systematic literature search was conducted in August 2025 using Results: Of 124 identified records, 13 studies met inclusion criteria. Most were prospective (n = 9), with four retrospective studies. Median study size was 39 patients, with a median ECOG performance status of 1. Treatment intent was predominantly palliative (54%), followed by curative (31%) and ablative (15%). Bone metastases were the most common indication; curative treatments included lung, prostate, brain, breast, and uveal tumors. Stereotactic radiotherapy (54%) and hypofractionated external-beam radiotherapy (38%) were most frequently used. Procedure times ranged from 25 to 470 min. Patient satisfaction, reported in three studies, was consistently good. Treatment accuracy was only assessed in three (23%) studies. Conclusion: Current evidence supports the feasibility of same-day radiotherapy, particularly in
