PURPOSE: Our aim was to assess and address the challenges radiology residents face when managing breast imaging emergencies on call and to determine if targeted educational interventions improved resident confidence and knowledge. METHODS: We created surveys to determine resident comfort level with and knowledge of appropriate management of breast imaging emergencies. We also created structured educational interventions to improve resident confidence and knowledge. The effectiveness of these interventions was assessed with pre- and post-intervention surveys given to the 43 residents at our institution. RESULTS: Thirty-six of the 43 residents at our institution completed both surveys. The results showed that 33 of 36 residents (91.7%) felt an increase in their comfort level after utilizing one or both of the interventions. There was also significant improvement in resident knowledge; the average resident score on the knowledge questions improved from 40 to 68% (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: Managing breast imaging emergencies on call can be challenging and stressful for residents. Educational interventions such as our targeted teaching tools can significantly improve resident confidence and knowledge. Presenting dedicated teaching materials directed at a previously identified knowledge deficit and source of stress significantly improved resident knowledge base and confidence in managing breast imaging emergencies on call.
