The effectiveness of eye tracking in the diagnosis of cognitive disorders: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

<h4>Background</h4>Eye tracking (ET) is a viable marker for the recognition of cognitive disorders. We assessed the accuracy and clinical value of ET for the diagnosis of cognitive disorders in patients.<h4>Methods</h4>We searched the Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane...
