Screening efficiency over experience: Rapid target detection in low-power field as a modifiable cognitive biomarker for diagnostic accuracy in digital cytology

Background Traditionally, cytology expertise has been equated with professional experience. However, the transition to whole-slide imaging and artificial intelligence (AI) necessitates a shift from exhaustive screening to rapid verification. The goal of this study was to identify cognitive biomarkers associated with diagnostic accuracy and evaluate their modifiability. Methods In phase 1, 100 cytotechnologists with 1-40 years of experience diagnosed 30 digital cytology images using eye-tracking. Gaze metrics acr…

Current reading — gain

Efficient low-power field target detection, measured as shorter fixation duration and faster time to first target fixation, predicts higher diagnostic accuracy in digital cytology and can be rapidly acquired through standard 3-month training.

Current reading — problem

Inefficient low-power field target detection, reflected in longer fixation duration on the LPF main object, predicts lower diagnostic accuracy, while traditional years of professional experience fails to predict accuracy in digital cytology.

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0619 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
