The Ph.D. work involved investigating the ergonomic and performance issues associated with the presentation of prior mammograms in breast cancer screening. Dr. Elizabeth Krupinski is an experimental psychologist with research interests in medical image perception, observer performance, medical decision-making and human factors as they pertain to radiology and telemedicine. The goal of her research is to improve our understanding of the perceptual and cognitive mechanisms underlying the interpretation of medical images in order to reduce errors, improve training and optimize the reading environment, thereby improving patient care and outcomes. Krupinski is a past SIIM chair.
