Our faculty use a slightly simplified approach to the American College of Radiology’s RADPEER scoring system.
Each case report will include a report grade and personalized feedback. Your report grade will fall into one of the three categories listed below:
1. Does Not Meet Expectations - This report did not identify the primary differential diagnosis (Major Miss) and it impacts the clinical course of action (e.g. No ACL tear vs. yes ACL tear)
2. Meets Expectations - This report identified the primary differential diagnosis and used sufficient language in the report.
3. Exceeds Expectations - This report was well written including identifying the primary differential diagnosis and additional ancillary findings.
Case reports may include additional feedback per the instructor’s discretion including:
- Miss Type:
Major Miss: Impacts clinical course of action (e.g. No ACL tear vs. Yes ACL tear)
Minor Miss: Unlikely to impact clinical course of action (grade 3 tear vs. grade 4 tear)
- Ancillary Findings: Finding that is unrelated to the main purpose of the study
(e.g. the main focus of the study is the ACL but there's some fraying in some tissues elsewhere in the knee)
- Stylistic Changes
