Summary

Chiropractic students found arthritides most interesting and patient positioning least interesting. Educators should focus curriculum on applied imaging and clinical correlation, reducing time on physics and positioning.

Area of Science:

  • Chiropractic Education
  • Diagnostic Radiology
  • Medical Education

Background:

  • Diagnostic radiology is a crucial part of chiropractic training.
  • Evaluating radiology curriculum content and design is essential for effective teaching.
  • Ineffective teaching methods lead to significant time and resource waste.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess chiropractic students' perceptions of radiology topics and learning resources.
  • To identify areas for curriculum improvement in diagnostic radiology education.
  • To inform curriculum design based on student feedback and perceived understanding.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was conducted with 121 senior chiropractic students.
  • Students reported interest, perceived understanding, and helpfulness of resources for 11 radiology topics.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Data collection occurred immediately after the completion of the radiology curriculum.

    • Main Results:

    • Arthritides were ranked as the most interesting topic; patient positioning was least interesting.
    • Students desired more focus on arthritides and case correlation/patient management.
    • Class lectures and film review sessions were most helpful; film libraries and videodiscs were least helpful.

    Conclusions:

    • Chiropractic radiology curricula should emphasize applied imaging in patient management and clinical correlation.
    • Less instructional time may be needed for radiographic physics and patient positioning.
    • Curriculum modifications should align with educational goals and objective assessments.
