Abstract
The future will bring increasing demands for specialty training of MSK radiologists. These will include requirements for further standardization of curriculum, educational methods, and documentation. This will place further burdens (both temporal and financial) on the fellowship programs and may lead to termination of some programs. There is a risk that increasingly bureaucratic training requirements may "crowd out" the basic conceptual education necessary for the continued growth and relevance of the subspecialty. Educators must find ways to incorporate these aspects into programs even when they are not mandated.
期刊介绍:
Skeletal Radiology provides a forum for the dissemination of current knowledge and information dealing with disorders of the musculoskeletal system including the spine. While emphasizing the radiological aspects of the many varied skeletal abnormalities, the journal also adopts an interdisciplinary approach, reflecting the membership of the International Skeletal Society. Thus, the anatomical, pathological, physiological, clinical, metabolic and epidemiological aspects of the many entities affecting the skeleton receive appropriate consideration.
This is the Journal of the International Skeletal Society and the Official Journal of the Society of Skeletal Radiology and the Australasian Musculoskelelal Imaging Group.
