Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the application effect of teaching-picture archiving and communication system (T-PACS) in training image reading ability of eight-year-program students. Methods Sixty students were divided into two groups: control group (applying traditional teaching method) and experimental group (applying traditional teaching method and T-PACS) when doing clinical medical image reading ability training. Making multimedia teaching movie, clinical image reading teaching and establishing image database by T-PACS were used in experiment group. Mean-while, reading room was set up and classroom teaching and problem-oriented assignments were in-creased. Finally objective evaluation of image recognition ability and questionnaire were used to compare the teaching effect. Measurement data were expressed as x±s. Total scores of image reading were am-alyzed by t test. Full score rates were analyzed by X2 test. Results The results showed that the score of medical image reading ability was higher in experimental group (90.08±4.52) than in control group (86.92±4.68) (P=0.010). There were differences in respiratory and orthopedic full score rate (P=0.006;P=0.035). Most students thought that application of T-PACS could effectively improve the teaching and learning quality. Conclusions Application of T-PACS can improve the medical image reading ability of eight-year-program medical students and is worth further promoting.
