Abstract
:
Eye-tracking software is immerging in the fields of medicine and dentistry to analyze examination patterns and thus improve our understanding of how diagnostic tests are evaluated. In doing so we hope to improve our teaching and training of how to used diagnostic tests. The aim of this study was to compare the examination pattern, interpretation and detection abilities of novices and expert orthodontists using incidental findings with different levels of difficulty on panoramic radiographs using eye-tracking technology. A total of 136 observers were involved in this study with 80 males and 56 female observers. The observers were divided into four groups: junior residents, senior residents, junior orthodontists and senior orthodontists. However, in the study, we have also combined the four groups and categorized them into two major ones: novices; consisting of the junior and senior residents, and the second group was the group of experts consisting of the junior and senior orthodontists. Six panoramic radiographs were chosen, they had incidental findings of varying degrees of difficulty. One normal panoramic radiograph was also used. The data collected was categorized into three categories; survey results of observers of the incidental findings (obvious, intermediate, subtle) eye tracking results of the area interest and entire radiograph The results showed no significant difference among the groups, however, the experts performed superior to the novices regarding their knowledge of the incidental findings, while the novices performed superior in their detection abilities of the incidental fing and the examination of the entire panoramic radiograph. In conclusion, the ability of both experts and novice orthodontists to “detect” an abnormal incidental finding was relatively similar. However, experts were more likely to correctly “identify” and categorize the incidental finding.
