Integration of the Diagnostic Radiological Health Sciences Learning Laboratory films into a radiology elective for medical students.
The basic Diagnostic Radiological Health Sciences Learning Laboratory (ACR Teaching File) consists of 5000 films (1400 cases). This educational system was developed under contract with the Bureau of Radiological Health, Food and Drug Administration and made available by the American College of Radiology. We report our experience with our own course and the ACR Teaching File for medical student teaching. For 24 of 75 students, the ACR Teaching File provided the basic core film material during a fourth-year elective clerkship. We compared the ACR Teaching File films with our own film material when used in similar teaching circumstances. ACR Teaching File films, when combined with established teaching methods, proved to be satisfactory for medical student teaching.
