Educational videos significantly improve radiology resident learning of stereotactic breast core biopsy procedures. This study demonstrates a 30.7% score increase on video content, highlighting the value of video integration in medical education.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Radiology Training
- Interventional Procedures
Background:
- Residency programs increasingly seek innovative methods to enhance medical training.
- Digital learning tools offer scalable and accessible educational resources.
- Stereotactic breast core biopsy is a critical skill in breast imaging.
Purpose of the Study:
- To assess the impact of an instructional video on resident learning of stereotactic breast core biopsy.
- To determine if video integration enhances the breast imaging curriculum.
Main Methods:
- A "how to" video on stereotactic breast core biopsy was created using the Explain Everything™ application.
- Radiology residents (postgraduate years 2-5) completed pretests and posttests assessing video content and control material.
- A total of 30 residents participated in the study, with results analyzed for improvement.
Main Results:
- Residents showed a significant mean improvement of 30.7% on video content questions (P < .001).
- No significant improvement was observed on control questions, indicating learning specific to the video content.
- Learning gains were consistent across all postgraduate years.
Conclusions:
- Instructional videos can significantly enhance resident learning in the short term.
- Video integration is a valuable addition to radiology residency training.
- Further research is needed to evaluate the long-term impact of educational videos in radiology.
