title: Diagnostic Radiology Residency Review Committee program citations and how to avoid them.
abstract: The Diagnostic Radiology Residency Review Committee gives citations when a program is out of compliance with the residency program requirements of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education. Several common and some serious citations can be avoided with proactive planning by residency program directors and chairs to be in compliance. These citations include a low American Board of Radiology pass rate, a low faculty/resident ratio, a lack of timely resident evaluations, a lack of written annual evaluations of faculty members, a lack of evaluation of program curriculum and rotation objectives, inadequate faculty teaching and supervision, inadequate faculty scholarly activity, and night floats that may interfere with education.
