"Medical Student Education in Radiology: Have We Been Doing It Wrong for the Past 50 Years?"

September 16, 201509/16/2015 5:30pm 09/16/2015 5:30pm "Medical Student Education in Radiology: Have We Been Doing It Wrong for the Past 50 Years?"

Radiology education historically has involved a great deal of shadowing in reading rooms. When more formal radiology education was offered, the historical emphasis of the lecture or small groups was usually a “lite” version of the education provided to radiology residents, often focused on diagnosing straight-forward diseases on radiographs. Is this what medical students need to know in 2015? Can this model persist into the future?

Drs. Emma Webb and David Naeger, Co-Directors of the UCSF Henry I. Goldberg Center for Advanced Imaging Education, will review the new thoughts and trends being discussed in the world of radiology education. We will also provide a summary of the full radiology curriculum being offered at UCSF, now and in the future, as well as a brief discussion of the very controversial topic of “point of care” ultrasound, quick tests often performed outside the radiology department.
