Enhanced odorant localization abilities in congenitally blind but not in late-blind individuals.

Nov 05, 2020

Although often considered a non-dominant sense for spatial perception, chemosensory perception can be used to localize the source of an event and potentially help us navigate through our environment. ...

The invisible breast cancer: Experience does not protect against inattentional blindness to clinically relevant findings in radiology.

Nov 05, 2020

Retrospectively obvious events are frequently missed when attention is engaged in another task-a phenomenon known as inattentional blindness. Although the task characteristics that predict inattention...

[Joint optic disc and cup segmentation based on residual multi-scale fully convolutional neural network].

Nov 05, 2020

Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness, but its early symptoms are not obvious and are easily overlooked, so early screening for glaucoma is particularly important. The cup to disc ra...
