Advanced image-guidance systems allowing presentation of three-dimensional navigational data in real time are being developed enthusiastically for many medical procedures. Other industries, including aviation and the military, have noted that shifting attention toward such compelling assistance has detrimental effects. Using the detection rate of unexpected findings, we assess whether inattentional blindness is significant in a surgical context and evaluate the impact of on-screen navigational cuing with augmented reality.
