Application of the RADPEER™ Scoring Language to Interpretation Discrepancies Between Diagnostic Radiology Residents and Faculty Radiologists

Discrepancy rates in this study are comparable with previously reported data for discrepancies between attending radiologists and those between attending radiologists and residents data. A significant correlation was observed between increasing RADPEER scores and the clinical significance of discrepancies. This study supports the use of the RADPEER scoring language as both a resident quality assurance measure and an educational tool for quality improvement.
