Making use of the invisible gorilla experiment from nearly 15 years ago, researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital conducting a unique study found that less than a quarter of radiologists were able to identify a gorilla on CT scans.
The researchers recruited 24 radiologists from the hospital and asked them to go through the CT scans of five patients who took a lung cancer screening test.
While the images of the first four patients were clean, five consecutive images from the 239 images of the CT scan of the fifth patient contained a dancing gorilla with varying degree of transparency.
