Abstract

RadNotes is a novel software development tool that enables physicians to develop teaching materials incorporating text and images in an intelligent, highly usable format. Projects undertaken in the RadNotes environment require neither programming expertise nor the assistance of a software engineer. The first of these projects, Thoracic Imaging, integrates image teaching files, concise disease and topic summaries, references, and flash card quizzes into a single program designed to provide an overview of chest radiology. RadNotes is intended to support the academic goals of teaching radiologists by enabling authors to create, edit, and electronically distribute image-oriented presentations. RadNotes also supports the educational goals of physicians who wish to quickly review selected imaging topics, as well as to develop a visual vocabulary of corresponding radiologic anatomy and pathologic conditions. Although Thoracic Imaging was developed with the aim of introducing chest radiology to residents, RadNotes can be used to develop tutorials and image-based tests for all levels; create corresponding World Wide Web sites; and organize notes, images, and references for individual use.
