Abstract
A method and system provide for user sensitive pacing in an image triage that is based on rapid serial visual presentation. The physical or cognitive state of a user is monitored during the image triage, and images are shown to the user at a predetermined image presentation rate. The image presentation rate is adjusted during the image triage in response to the physical state or cognitive state of the user. For example, the image presentation rate can be decreased to match a decreased capacity of the user to process images, or the image presentation rate can be increased to match an increased capacity of the user to process images. In addition, the showing of the images can be paused in response to inattention of the user. Further, one or more of the images can be resequenced for examination by the user if such images are missed because of eye blinks.
