医学院校本科生对介入放射学认知的调查研究北大核心CSCD

目的调查医学院校本科生对介入放射学的认知情况,探讨学生愿意接受的提高介入放射学认知的有效方法。方法于2021年11月2日至12日,对中国医科大学在校本科生采取自愿参加原则进行线上问卷调查,了解学生对介入放射学认知情况。结果共440名本科生参与调查。259名(58.86%)学生表示知道介入放射学这一学科,其中217名(49.31%)学生认为介入放射学在临床诊断和治疗方面均发挥着重要作用。数据分析显示,高年级、医学影像学专业、亲友中有医护人员、既往课程中有介入放射学内容和接受过有关介入治疗讲座或培训的学生对介入放射学的认知度高。学习方式上,55.68%的学生选择愿意通过选修课或必修课的形式学习介入放射学,341名(77.5%)学生希望到医院实习了解介入放射学。122名(27.73%)学生表示未来可能将介入作为职业选择。结论目前医学院校本科生对介入放射学认知度仍不高。以选修课或必修课的形式开设介入课程,并增加临床实习可能是提高学生对介入放射学认知的有效方法。

气道重度狭窄:介入放射学钳夹活检技术探讨

目的探讨气道重度狭窄行介入放射学钳夹活检的可行性、安全性和优越性。方法选取2006年10月至2011年9月气道重度狭窄、不能耐受纤维支气管镜检查的患者24例,行胸部MSCT以明确狭窄部位及程度,其中严重狭窄位于气管者14例,隆突2例,左主支气管6例,右主支气管2例;DSA下以介入放射学技术经口腔依次向气道引入导丝、导管,并交换引入鞘管,经鞘管引入内镜活检钳对气道狭窄区钳夹活检病理检查。结果气道狭窄区钳夹活检技术成功率100%,能获取满足病理要求的标本,未出现气道出血、穿孔、纵隔气肿、窒息、气胸等并发症。结论 DSA导向下介入放射学钳夹活检是急诊气道支架置入前明确病理学性质或纤维支气管镜活检失败者的可行替代技术,操作简单、安全,阳性率高。

Descriptive analysis of interventional radiology residency program directors in the United States

PurposeTo analyze the academic background, demographics and scholarly metrics of Interventional Radiology (IR) residency program directors (PDs) in the United States.MethodsOnline search of publicly available resources was performed from April 6–10, 2020. PDs and associate PDs of ACGME accredited integrated and independent IR residency programs were included in the study. The variables collected from publicly available sources included age, sex, academic background (including medical school, residency and fellowship), and scholarly activity (publications, citations and h-index). Nonparametric statistics including Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis tests were applied to compare differences between groups.ResultsA total of 174 PDs and associate PDs from 110 unique integrated and independent IR residency programs were included in the study. One hundred fifty three (87.9%) were male and twenty one (12.1%) were female. The average age of PDs was 47.39 years (SD 8.99, median 45, range 34–74). Eighty six percent of the PDs were American medical school graduates, 97% received a MD degree or foreign equivalent, and 3% received a DO degree. There was no statistical difference between male and female PDs with regards to number of publications, average number of citations or mean h-index. Fellow of the Society of Interventional Radiology (FSIR) qualification was held by 21.3% and PDs with FSIR designation had significantly higher scholarly metrics.ConclusionIR Residency PDs are predominantly male and graduates of American medical schools. Women represent only 12% of the IR PD workforce with no significant difference in scholarly metrics of female PDs compared to male PDs. PDs with FSIR designation had significantly higher scholarly metrics.     

Temporal and geospatial variations among the interventional radiology physician workforce in the United States

ObjectiveTo analyze the temporal trends and state-wide geospatial variations in Vascular and Interventional Radiology (VIR) workforce in the United States.MethodsThe State Physician Workforce Data from the AAMC website was accessed for years 2015, 2017, and 2019. The variables collected for each state included total number of active physicians, total number of physicians per specialty and total number of female physicians in VIR. Comparative data was obtained for vascular surgery (VS), diagnostic radiology (DR), and radiation oncology (RO). The annual growth rate for total physicians and sub-analysis of female physicians in each state was computed for each specialty.ResultsFrom 2015 to 2019, the total number of active physicians in the United States grew by 1.8% per year. Growth of active physicians in VIR grew by 8.3%, DR 0.06%, VS 4.4%, and RO 1.9% per year. Colorado and Minnesota had the highest growth rate for VIR physicians (15%). VIR physicians per 100,000 people increased from 0.84 (2015) to 1.10 (2019) in the US. In comparison, VS physicians increased from 0.99 (2015) to 1.14 (2019), DR physicians decreased from 8.61 (2015) to 8.43 (2019), and RO physicians grew from 1.48 (2015) to 1.56 (2019). Women represented 6.8% of the VIR workforce in the US in 2019 and increased by a rate of 16% annually in the US from 2015 to 2019. In comparison, the number of women in VS has grown by 21%, DR by 2%, and RO by 2.4% during the same period. The state of Maryland has the highest proportion of women in VIR at 18%.ConclusionThe number of VIR physicians is increasing at a higher rate than the national overall physician growth, and while female VIR physicians makeup a small fraction of the VIR workforce, their numbers have increased at a faster rate than overall VIR physicians.     

Society of Breast Imaging residency and fellowship training curriculum

A recently developed Society of Breast Imaging curriculum for residency training is intended to provide guidance to residents and their mentors, and to practicing radiologists who want to keep up to date in screening, diagnosis, and interventional procedures. The curriculum contains lists of key concepts in 14 subject areas: epidemiology; anatomy; pathology, and physiology; equipment and technique; quality control; interpretation; problem-solving mammography; ultrasound; interventional procedures; reporting and medicolegal aspects; screening; MR imaging; therapeutic considerations; and patient management principles. The curriculum also makes recommendations about residency training, including the number of examinations the resident should interpret, and the time the resident should spend in breast imaging. Recommendations for fellowship training are also discussed.     

Diagnostic radiology resident perspectives on fellowship training and career interest in emergency radiology

Purpose

(1) Evaluate radiology resident perception of emergency radiology (ER). (2) Identify potential barriers to pursuing fellowship training or a career in ER among radiology residents.

Materials and methods

A 9-question digital survey was designed using Qualtrics Experience Management software (Qualtrics Inc., Provo, UT) and distributed to all US radiology residents via a multi-pronged distribution approach.

Results

Four hundred fifty-one residents responded out of an estimated national total of 4432 residents (10.2%). Gender proportion was nationally representative (female?=?24.5%; p?=?0.57), with a slight R1 predominance (p?=?0.034). Of the residents, 88.8% were aware that an ER subspecialty exists, 82.0% were aware that ER fellowships exist, but only 51.7% were aware that the American Society of Emergency Radiology (ASER) exists. Nearly a quarter reported no ER division or ER resident rotation. Residents in a program without an ER division or rotation were nearly twice as likely to be unaware of the existence of ER subspecialty, ER fellowships, and ASER compared to others (p?=?0.017). The presence of an ER division and rotation significantly increases the knowledge of ASER (65.5% vs. 40.7%, p?<?0.001) and increases residents’ ratings of their ER training (p?<?0.001). The following factors were ranked as the most important for fellowship choice: (1) personal interest, (2) intellectually stimulating, and (3) work hours. When asked if ER had an appealing work schedule, the mean response was 56 out of 100 (0?=?disagree, 100?=?agree).

Conclusion

US radiology residents with the greatest exposure to ER during residency are more familiar with ER training, ER career opportunities, and ASER and had a more favorable perception of the field. Subspecialty leaders should focus on ER’s inherent intellectual appeal and reframe its nontraditional schedule as positive (flexible).
