Abstract:
Radiology teaching for undergraduate medical students is often limited in amount and lacking a longitudinal approach spanning multiple years. At our institution, we had a goal to develop a formal and sustainable radiology curriculum. There were sequential changes made to the curriculum over several years and here, the successes, challenges, and lessons learned are outlined. Alongside these elements, student radiology quiz results and survey data over several years are also summarized. Curricular development included integrated anatomy and radiology sessions, revamped lectures focusing on interactivity and eliminating unnecessary redundancies across the multi-year curriculum, radiology media files to supplement problem-based learning, clinical skills videos, and a pre-clerkship radiology bootcamp elective.

Radiological Investigation I: X-ray and CT
Positron Emission Tomography
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body...
Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
