Development of competence in volumetric image interpretation in radiology residents

摘要

BackgroundDuring residency, radiology residents learn to interpret volumetric radiological images. The development of their competence for volumetric image interpretation, as opposed to 2D image reading, is not completely understood. The purpose of the present study was to investigate how competence for volumetric image interpretation develops in radiology residents and how this compares with competence development for 2D image interpretation, by studying resident scores on image-based items in digital radiology tests.
