IMPORTANCE: A high level of surgical skill is essential to prevent intraoperative problems. One important aspect of surgical education is surgical skill assessment, with pertinent feedback facilitating efficient skill acquisition by novices.
Background The high volume of data in digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and the lack of agreement on how to best implement it in screening programs makes its use challenging. Purpose To compare radiologist performance when reading single-view wide-a...

BACKGROUND: The development of technical dexterity is a critical for surgeons in training. This study describes and assesses the feasibility of an objective method for the evaluation of procedure-specific technical dexterity in hepatopancreatobiliary...
Robotics has been used as an attractive tool in diverse educational fields. A variety of robotic platforms have contributed to teaching practical embedded programming to engineering students at universities. However, most platforms only support conte...
Simulation is increasingly being used to train surgeons and access technical competency in robotic skills. The construct validity of using simulation performance for high-stakes examinations such as credentialing has not been studied appropriately. T...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the educational impact following the implementation of a robotic thoracic surgery program on cardiothoracic (CT) surgery trainees. We hypothesized that the introduction of a robotic thoracic surgery program...
AIM: To evaluate the role that artificial intelligence (AI) could play in assisting radiologists as the first reader of chest radiographs (CXRs), to increase the accuracy and efficiency of lung cancer diagnosis by flagging positive cases before passi...
