Near-Peer Teaching in Radiology Symposia: A Success Story in Residents as Teachers.

Introduction: Peer learning and near-peer teaching have been described in many specialties, less so in Radiology. We present near-peer teaching whereby residents present a series of didactic sessions at the course outset in the form of "symposia" and perform a scholarly activity in the form of teaching. We aim to demonstrate how near-peer teaching in symposia front-loaded within an introductory radiology course can improve medical student satisfaction.

Sex-specific biomechanics and morphology of the anterior cruciate ligament during skeletal growth in a porcine model.

Pediatric anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are on the rise, and females experience higher ACL injury risk than males during adolescence. Studies in skeletally immature patients indicate differences in ACL size and joint laxity between males and females after the onset of adolescence. However, functional data regarding the ACL and its anteromedial and posterolateral bundles in the pediatric population remain rare.

Age- and sex-specific differences in ACL and ACL bundle size during adolescent growth.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are increasingly common in adolescents, and injuries in this age-group are associated with many unique challenges. Recent large animal studies suggest that the size and function of the major bundles of the ACL change differently throughout skeletal growth. To better aid clinical treatment of pediatric partial ACL tears and better predict outcomes from age-specific treatments, there is a need to measure changes in ACL bundle size in humans during growth.

Neonatal Cranial Ultrasound Findings among Infants Born Extremely Preterm: Associations with Neurodevelopmental Outcomes at 10 Years of Age.

Objective: To examine the association between neonatal cranial ultrasound (CUS) abnormalities among infants born extremely preterm and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 10 years of age.

Study Design: In a multicenter birth cohort of infants born at <28 weeks of gestation, 889 of 1198 survivors were evaluated for neurologic, cognitive, and behavioral outcomes at 10 years of age. Sonographic markers of white matter damage (WMD) included echolucencies in the brain parenchyma and moderate to severe ventricular enlargement.

Student-led peer review of an online teaching file: perspectives after 2 years.

Problem: Opportunities for self-directed learning were missing from our medical school curriculum in general and on our radiology electives specifically. Our objective was to explore the feasibility and benefits of using medical students in the development of our student-created teaching files.

Approach: In 2018, a website was developed at our institution to support medical student radiology education and create a repository for the online publication of student-developed teaching cases.
