AI Timing in Chest X-ray Interpretation Using Eye-Tracking

Chest X-rays are commonly used to help diagnose and manage chest conditions. Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are increasingly being used to support chest X-ray interpretation. However, it is not yet clear whether the timing of AI information affects how clinicians review images, make decisions, and use AI support. This study will look at whether showing AI information before or after a clinician first reviews a chest X-ray changes how they look at the image, how long they take, their interpretation decisions, their confidence, and their trust in AI support. Healthcare professional participants will complete two chest X-ray interpretation sessions in a controlled NHS research setting. During each session, participants will review de-identified chest X-ray images while wearing eye-tracking equipment. Eye-tracking will record where a participant looks on the image and how long they spend looking at different areas. In one session, AI information will be shown before the participant reviews the chest X-ray. In the other session, AI information will be shown after the participant has first reviewed the chest X-ray. The order of these two sessions will be balanced across participants. The study uses de-identified chest X-ray images from existing examinations. It does not involve patients directly, does not change clinical care, and no clinical decisions will be made from the study readings. Participants will also complete a short questionnaire about their experience of using…
