NOTES OF A RADIOLOGY WATCHER - STEPHEN R BAKER ...

The Radiology Department is a pivotal part of any acute and or comprehensive health care
facility. The radiologist can no longer just hide out there. Matters of imaging are often
public concerns  larger in scope than just the scheduling and managing of a series of image
tests. Rather radiology is expensive  often intrusive and in some areas earnestly and endlessly
controversial. A radiologist must be attuned to these often confounding contingencies. Two
recent developments in the monitoring of education of radiologists can be impacted by the
content of this book. For trainees in Radiology  and for that matter  for all trainees in every
medical specialty in the U.S.  a new accreditation system (NAS) has been put into place under
the impetus and aegis of the ACGME  the Accreditation Committee for Graduate Medical Education
the body responsible for graduate medical evaluation and oversight in the U.S. Among its many
innovations  the NAS curriculum is concerned with knowledge acquired about social and economic
issues pertinent to each specialty. It is also focused on improving communication skills and
about enhancing quality and safety. In the elaboration of milestones for residency education in
these issues are codified into focused initiatives that must be addressed by each trainee as he
or she advances in capability and seniority within the training interval.
