About five years ago some researchers tracked the eye movements
of pathologists looking at tissue samples for evidence (I think)
of cancer. In the cases where the pathologists mistakenly
reported there was no cancer, the researchers found that the
pathologists' eyes had in fact lingered on the places in the
slide where the evidence of cancer was. What was the paper
reporting this research, and is my description of it accurate?
In case it matters, this is the original paper:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=retrieve&db=pubmed&list_uids=2521130&dopt=Abstract
Very quick answer that was only one step removed from
the actual paper I was looking for.
Hello bugbear-ga,
Thanks a lot for allowing me to post this as an answer...glad that
paper hit the mark for you.
For the sake of completness, here's the link once again:
There is a very recently-published article on this very subject, which
more than likely includes a reference to the earlier study that is of
interest to you. The study abstract is at:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12944551&dopt=Abstract
Visualising scanning patterns of pathologists in the grading of
cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.
Thanks again, and have a good weekend!

Good work. I looked in that paper and found a reference to the
one I wanted. Now how do I mark this as answered?
There is a very recently-published article on this very subject, which
more than likely includes a reference to the earlier study that is of
interest to you. However, I do not have on-line access to the recent
study, so I cannot review the references. Perhaps another researcher
will be able to assist in this regard.
