Who We Are, What We're Up To, Some Ground Rules
• 2 generations of medical educators with long history of creating digital teaching tools
• Hands on tour of radiology educational resources on the Internet that are free to use but may require registration • = Decision support without Imaging Consult or STATdx
• We use these tools in the course of our work • We have experience + opinions + material to cover
• - But - we want this to be an interactive presentation - We want to learn from you: • Demographics of audience: > 50% outside US + > 50% in private practice • You have experience + opinions as well and we want to hear from you and
we want you to ask questions • So we're going to make this a Web 2.0 presentation taking advantage of
mass collaboration and the wisdom of the crowds

Relevance of This Talk To Your Practice • What do radiologists do?
• We read studies - radiographs, US, CT, MR, etc. - NOT! • We change data acquired by imaging devices into
knowledge that is used to make diagnoses that ultimately improve patients' care / outcomes / lives
• We need decision support help while transforming this data into knowledge and storing and making retrievable what we have learned
• We should be practicing Personalized Radiology for every patient • Right test selected / correctly performed / accurately
interpreted / diagnosis delivered at the right time to the right person so the right decision can be made

Educational Theory
• Why we should situate learning in practice
![Page 11: Essential Radiology Internet Resources for Decision Support and Learning While You Work](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/5559fca5d8b42ad00a8b4bd5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Patron Saint of Medical Education "In what my be called the natural method of teaching, the
student begins with the patient, continues with the patient, and ends his studies with the patient using books and lectures as tools, as means to an end."
- Sir William Osler
"If the license to practice meant the completion of his education, how sad it would be for the practitioner, how distressing to his patients! More clearly than any other, the physician should illustrate the truth of Plato's saying that education is a life-long process." - Sir William Osler
"The successful teacher is no longer on a height, pumping knowledge at high pressure into passive receptacles…he is a senior student anxious to help his juniors."
- Sir William Osler
"Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." - William Butler Yeats
• Learning is an apprenticeship! • Patient should be at the center of everything we do
educationally • All students must practice "Inquiry-based learning"

You Learn From Doing, Not Listenting
![Page 13: Essential Radiology Internet Resources for Decision Support and Learning While You Work](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/5559fca5d8b42ad00a8b4bd5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Our Philosophy • Great potential exists for
improving patients' care, outcomes, and lives
• By changing physician's knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors
• Through situating learning at the point-of-care
• Giving CME credit for it • And save this learning to
create wisdom
![Page 14: Essential Radiology Internet Resources for Decision Support and Learning While You Work](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/5559fca5d8b42ad00a8b4bd5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Tour
• Anatomy + Radiology resources on the Internet
• Think of a radiology topic you had a question on recently that you will research during this hands-on tour • Example: What is the radiographic appearance of pyloric stenosis?

The New Anatomists
• Interest in teaching human anatomy is waning in Anatomy Departments and Medical Schools
• Our ability to image anatomy is increasing
• Radiologists are the anatomists of the 21st century
![Page 19: Essential Radiology Internet Resources for Decision Support and Learning While You Work](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/5559fca5d8b42ad00a8b4bd5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
A Word on Anatomic Variation "Variability is the law of life"
- Sir William Osler
• There is no such thing as "normal" human anatomy • All anatomy is variation
• Anatomic variation is not pathology to be dreaded; instead it is diversity that should be celebrated
• Each human is anatomically unique • The fallacy of The Visible Human Project
• Not knowing variations is dangerous

How to Perform Decision Support During Clinical Work How to Situate Learning in Practice
• Radiology Search Engines • 2 minute search
• = Decision support for free
• What is the difference between StatDX and Radiology Search Engines for Decision Support? • StatDX helps you quickly find an answer • Radiology search engine helps you learn and remember the answer,
especially when coupled with learning portfolio • Radiology search engine allows you to receive CME for the answer

Documenting LearningLearning Portfolio
PACS -> USB Excel iPhoto iPod / Lecture Flickr www.pediatriccommons.org • Why?
• For Yourself - Passion + Reflection! "An unexamined life is not worth living" - Socrates • For Point-of-Care CME - questions are starting point for further learning • For sharing - individuals in person, groups in conferences / lectures, world on Web
• Educational construct: Adult learning theory = Learning situated in practice • [Schon's theory of clinical problem solving / model of reflective practice / learning cycle]
• For each case: Question ~ Story ~ Answer ~ Impact on Practice ~ Resources Used • Created + archived on PC ~ Shared on the Cloud • Is an E-memory system
• Memories are digital, near-infinite space to store them, ever-improving technology to recall them • Captures, stores, organizes and makes retrievable your experience + reflected wisdom
![Page 38: Essential Radiology Internet Resources for Decision Support and Learning While You Work](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/5559fca5d8b42ad00a8b4bd5/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Receiving CME For Point of Care Learning
www.cincinnatichildrens.org - Up to 20 hours / year - myrsna.rsna.org
![Page 39: Essential Radiology Internet Resources for Decision Support and Learning While You Work](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/5559fca5d8b42ad00a8b4bd5/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Sharing + TeachingCommunity of Practice
www.pediatriccommons.org
"Communities of practice are groups of people who share a concern, a set of problems, or a passion about a topic, and who deepen their understanding of this area by interacting on an ongoing basis."
- Wenger E. et. al. Cultivating Communities of Practice: A Guide to Managing Knowledge
Learning portfolio can be shared with your community of practice for collaborative learning
![Page 40: Essential Radiology Internet Resources for Decision Support and Learning While You Work](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/5559fca5d8b42ad00a8b4bd5/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Evaluation of a Learning Portfolio • A pediatrician's clinical experiences
coupled with reflection • 5 elements for each case • Evaluation shows unstructured curriculum
unfolding in practice over 5 years (234 cases) • Covers 100% of age ranges (n=9) • 100% of specialties (n=42) • 98% of symptoms (n=127) • 55% of diseases (n=707 [50-60% are pediatric]) • 90% of topics in 3 national pediatric curricula • 20 hours of CME / year • "My reading is now focused on my patients" - D'Alessandro DM, D'Alessandro MP. Formative Evaluation of a
Pediatric Digital Library's Educational Content and Comparison to National Curricular Standards. Medical Teacher. 2008;30(9-10) 880-6.
• Learner taking control of and assuming responsibility for their own learning by tying their learning to practice + receiving CME for it
• Learning portfolio documents what you have learned • Assessment by examination documents what
you don't know
