 Abstract

Recent technological solutions for image-guided therapies focus on replacing the cognitive processes of physicians. However, there is a lack of knowledge in the field of cognitive ergonomics regarding radiology image thinking, such as image interpretation and 3D navigation. This paper addresses the need of studying mental models in this context. The goal is to be able to design better user interfaces for advanced technological solutions which match the cognitive processes of physicians. The usefulness of employing a prototype in the early phases of development is shown through the example of oblique view interpretation. Recommendations are given how user interface prototyping can be used to study mental models.
