title: Radiology Resident Remediation: Five Important Questions to Ask.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Residents needing remediation are difficult to recognize, assess, and address. The purposes of this article are to review common signs that a resident needs remediation and the causes of the deficiencies and to detail a checklist for preparing to approach the resident.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Radiology residents who need remediation generally have either academic or professionalism deficits, and their remediation programs should be tailored to the deficit. Having a clear definition of the problem while eliciting the resident's thoughts on the nature of and solution to the problem are instrumental in the solution.
