Engagement of fusiform cortex and disengagement of lateral occipital cortex in the acquisition of radiological expertise.

Subjects with higher expressed expertise, as measured by performance on the diagnosis task, did show reliably higher activity in the FFA ( t = 2.3, p < 0.05 for comparison of 10 highest performers to remainders) and a strong trend toward the opposite pattern in left LO ( t = 2.1, p < 0.06).

The focus in left LO was larger in novices than in experts ( Table 1 ; F 1,16 = 5.88, p < 0.05) and showed a trend toward higher activity in novices than in experts in the diagnosis scans ( F 1,16 = 2.8, p < 0.11; Fig. 4 ).
