[Elaboration of a tool for an audit of radiology reports].
OBJECTIVE
Elaboration of a tool for an Audit of radiology reports in a department of radiology. Materials and methods. We have made a grid and a guide to evaluate the relevance and the quality of the radiology reports. We have tested this tool on 120 reports from in-patients of the gastroenterology department. The test has been done by two radiologists (blinded test) to verify if the answers were identical. We have calculated for each item the Kappa coefficient (inter-observer agreement).


RESULTS
This study has validated most of the items of our grid, some have been deleted, and others modified.


CONCLUSIONS
Our study shows that our tool can evaluate the radiology reports of a radiology department, an audit can thus be conducted using that tool.
