wherein said eye tracking is performed with an eye facing camera,

wherein eye tracking data is analyzed in near real time,

wherein said user is viewing a display,

wherein said display is displaying an image, and

wherein said image comprises multiple structures;

performing an analysis of eye tracking data

wherein said analysis determines that said user is viewing a first structure of said image;

predicting a first image analysis tool from a group of image analysis tools

wherein said first image analysis tool optimizes image analysis of said first structure of said image;

presenting said first image analysis tool to said user;

performing an analysis of eye tracking data at a subsequent time epoch

wherein said analysis of eye tracking data at said subsequent time epoch determines that said user is viewing a second structure, and

wherein said second structure is different from said first structure;

predicting a second image analysis tool from said group of image analysis tools

wherein said second image analysis tool optimizes image analysis of said second structure, and

wherein said second image analysis tool is different than said first image analysis tool; and
