Abstract
En 中文
This study aimed to design and evaluate a competency-based education (CBE)-oriented modular training model for radiology residents, emphasizing interdisciplinary integration and disease-focused instruction to enhance clinical competence. This prospective controlled study included 75 radiology residents enrolled in standardized training from September 2020 to July 2024. A CBE-oriented modular training model was developed, structured around approximately 27 radiologic subspecialties and incorporating interdisciplinary instruction, clinical team rotations, and image post-processing skill training. The participants were assigned to either the experimental group (CBE training) or the control group (traditional training). Teaching effectiveness was evaluated by comparing theoretical and practical exam scores via statistical analysis. Overall, there were no significant differences in theoretical (83.26 ± 6.99 vs 81.76 ± 7.54; p > 0.05) or practical scores (86.79 ± 8.90 vs 84.91 ± 10.71; p > 0.05) between the two groups. However, subgroup analysis revealed that, among residents in the non-graduate subgroup, the experimental group achieved significantly higher theoretical (p = 0.0179) and practical scores (p = 0.028) than the control group. No significant differences were observed in the enrolled-graduate subgroup (p > 0.05). The competency-based modular training model significantly improved clinical competence among residents in the non-graduate subgroup but showed less additional benefit in the enrolled-graduate subgroup. This study offers insights for advancing radiology residency training reform. The distinct effectiveness of this approach was particularly beneficial for trainees with diverse educational backgrounds. This training model enhances residents’ clinical competence and research capabilities and provides insights for global radiology education reform, aligning training paradigms with evolving clinical and technological advancements.
