Are we taught how to use a radiology department as medical students? 1987

N J Cozens

Thirty-six final year medical students and 28 senior house officers answered a questionnaire designed to evaluate their efficacy in requesting common radiological procedures and their knowledge of what the patient experiences during the investigation. Both groups revealed a significant degree of ignorance, though the house officers were better informed than the students. The need for undergraduate teaching in radiology, particularly in the role of diagnostic radiology in clinical management is discussed.
