Figure 2

Diagnostic path. Left panel a whole diagnostic path composed of multiples jumps among different image locations. This diagnostic path shows not only scanning patterns at the beginning, but also magnification changes, highlighted in the figure as the green and blue squares. Once the magnification changes are established, navigation keeps under scanning patterns and the observation window is smaller since resolution is higher. At the right panel it is displayed the image locations with higher time rates. The white squares correspond to longer times while grey ones stand for smaller. Note that longer times are spent in the part of the diagnostic path which was conducted at the higher magnifications.
