Diagnostic Imaging Fundamentals: Brain Vascular Pathology

Introduction This module was created to supplement the traditional learning methods that senior medical students, first-year radiology residents, and residents in other specialties employ to learn the fundamentals of radiologic image interpretation. It is part of an ongoing project entitled Diagnost...

We believe the module's application of team-based learning can act as a model for collaborative learning in a traditionally didactic learning environment. Future work will include expanding use of the module to larger groups of radiology residents, medical students, and residents in other specialties.Erwin XiaEfrain Lee-DiazMiguel Trelles de BelaundeJorge Lee DiazAssociation of American Medical CollegesarticleTeam-Based LearningRadiologyNeuroradiologyBrain Vascular PathologyMedicine (General)R5-920EducationLENMedEdPORTAL, Vol 13 (2017)
