Optimizing presentation of breast tomosynthesis image volumes using eye tracking combined with a free response human observer study

The purpose of this study was to evaluate three different image presentations and four different viewing procedures as part of improving viewing conditions of breast tomosynthesis (BT) image volumes. The procedures consisted of free scroll volume browsing, and a combination of initial cine loops at three different frame rates (9, 14 and 25 f/s). Eye-tracking is used to evaluate search.
