Application of case-based learning in the image post-processing teaching of standardized training of medical imaging technology / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the application effect of case-based learning (CBL) and lecture-based learning (LBL) in the teaching of image post-processing course in the standardized training system of medical imaging technology.Methods:A total of 34 trainees in the standardized training of imaging technology of Batch 2018 in West China Hospital of Sichuan University were divided into the experimental group and the control group according to their student numbers, with 17 students in each group. CBL teaching was carried out in the experimental group, and LBL teaching was carried out in the control group. According to the standardized training course design, after one year of image post-processing course teaching, the teaching effect was evaluated through closed-book examination, questionnaire survey and post-processing test. SPSS 20.0 was used for t-test and Mann-Whitney U test. Results:The scores of closed-book examinations (74.42±6.10) and post-processing test (73.47±6.03) in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group [(69.11±3.70) and (69.08±6.51)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The questionnaire survey showed that the students in the experimental group recognized CBL teaching in terms of learning interests stimulation, classroom atmosphere mobilization, clinical thinking cultivation, self-study ability training, and analysis of difficult and rare cases, etc. Conclusion:In the image post-processing course of standardized training of medical imaging technology, the rational application of CBL teaching mode is helpful to improve students' learning enthusiasm, self-learning ability, comprehensive analysis of clinical ability, practical ability, innovation consciousness and so on.
