Description
Michael A Bruno and a multidisciplinary team report pilot work, in 2026, on why radiologists sometimes miss visible disease on scans. Missing an abnormality is the most common kind of radiologist error, and its rate has barely changed since it was first described in 1949.
Small groups of radiologists completed visual tasks while their brain activity was recorded with magnetic resonance imaging and with light-based scalp sensors. The team focused on two brain networks, including the default mode network, to see whether network state at the moment of viewing predicts a miss. Imaging specialists and safety researchers gain early clues for training or workflow changes that could help doctors spot disease more reliably.
