A longitudinal experiment was conducted across three consecutive semesters of the medical program at Macquarie University, where the eye movements of 13 medical students were recorded with a high-resolution eye tracker while they viewed pathological images from multiple imaging modalities. In addition, eye-tracking data from 13 consultant neurosurgeons were included as expert reference data to assess whether longitudinal changes in students' approach mirror expert-like visual behavior. Three metrics were computed: the two- and three-dimensional fractal dimensions of eye-gaze to capture spatiotemporal complexity of the eye-gaze data, and a fractal-dimension-based correlation to quantify the relationship between gaze patterns and stimulus structure. These metrics were combined into a composite Fractal Eye-Gaze Expertise Index (FEI). The results show systematic reductions in fractal complexity across sessions, indicating increasingly structured and efficient gaze strategies, with trends approaching those of experts. Crucially, conventional fixation-duration-based measures failed to consistently capture this progression, unlike the proposed fractal metrics. Statistical analyses confirm significant session-related effects for all metrics, and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis shows that the FEI effectively discriminates longitudinal differences in visual expertise. This work demonstrates that fractal-based eye-gaze modelling provides an objective and scalable approach to characterizing visual expertise.</p>","PeriodicalId":49840,"journal":{"name":"Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing","volume":" ","pages":"3075-3088"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148413554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the importance of ultrasound image resolution often goes overlooked within deep learning methodologies. In this study, we integrate the ultrasound image resolution into a convolutional neural network and explore the effect of the resolution on diagnosis of kidney tumors. In the process of integrating the image resolution information, we propose two different approaches to narrow the semantic gap between the features extracted by the neural network and the resolution features. In the first approach, the resolution is directly concatenated with the features extracted by the neural network. In the second approach, the features extracted by the neural network are first dimensionally reduced and then combined with the resolution features to form new composite features. We compare these two approaches incorporating the resolution with the method without incorporating the resolution on a kidney tumor dataset of 926 images consisting of 211 images of benign kidney tumors and 715 images of malignant kidney tumors. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of the method without incorporating the resolution is 0.8665, and the AUCs of the two approaches incorporating the resolution are 0.8926 (P < 0.0001) and 0.9135 (P < 0.0001) respectively.

Such a method could be useful for navigating and assisting minimally invasive spine surgery where direct sight on the surgical site is absent. During surgery, the pre-operative CT model and surgical plans are registered to the patient's anatomy by using intra-operative US reconstruction. However, accurate and automatic registration remains challenging. This difficulty arises from an incomplete detection of the bone geometry in US images and the challenges in identifying anatomical landmarks. To address the problem, this work presents a pipeline to automate the workflow by offering an initial CT-to-US registration. This work utilizes PointAttN for 3D shape completion that completes occluded bone structures from partial US reconstruction. This enriched point cloud is then segmented using PointNet++ to identify specific anatomical features. To train the network, synthetic 3D representations of partial views are generated from fifty CT models of the lumbar spine by simulating US physics, effectively mimicking the intraoperative scenario. The proposed work yields a mean registration error of 1.34 mm and 1.63 mm on real US reconstructions of agar phantoms and an ex vivo human spine, respectively. This comprehensive 3D representation enhances anatomical feature interpretation, enabling robust automatic registration.

Accurate delineation of lesions is essential for diagnosis, treatment planning, and longitudinal monitoring.

To address these challenges, we propose HDDI-Net, a Hierarchical Dual-Domain Interaction Network integrated into a macro-micro region-of-interest pipeline. HDDI-Net combines multi-kernel spatial feature extraction with discrete cosine transform (DCT)-guided frequency gating to effectively suppress speckle while preserving morphological integrity. At the network bottleneck, a Prototype-Guided Semantic Consistency (PGSC) module approximates global context without high computational cost. Extensive experiments on the BUSI and TN3K datasets, along with zero-shot cross-domain evaluation on UDIAT, demonstrate that HDDI-Net achieves improved accuracy-efficiency trade-offs compared with evaluated lightweight CNNs and transformer-based segmentation models, operating with only 1.7M parameters and a moderate computational footprint of 3.3 GFLOPs, achieving up to 5.0 percentage-point IoU improvement in zero-shot evaluation and up to 3.9 percentage-point Dice improvement over the strongest competing baseline.

Five metrics were employed to evaluate performances of the three models, including offline classification accuracy, motion selection time, motion completion time, motion completion rate, and online classification accuracy.
