Radiologists less susceptible to visual illusions

AuntMinnie

Only two previous studies have addressed the issue of whether enhancements in visual perception abilities of radiologists are a product of specialist professional training, with mixed results, the authors explained. Experts had mean scores of 0.49 versus 0.29 on the Ebbinghaus illusion and mean scores of 0.61 versus 0.46
