Eye Tracking Application in Computer Aided Diagnosis and Image Processing in Radiology

Abstract: Medical imaging is an important resource for early diagnostic, detection, and effective treatment of cancers. However, the screening and review processes for radiologists have been shown to overlook a certain percentage of potentially cancerous image features. Such review errors may result in misdiagnosis and failure to identify tumors. These...
