Where this comes from

Abstract

The purpose of this perspective is to describe the reliability and feasibility of methods such as direct observation of procedural skills and multisource feedback in assessment of the performance of radiology residents. Workplace-based assessments such as direct observation of procedural skills have a role in the formative assessment of radiology residents. They can be used to evaluate residents' performance, provide feedback, and identify areas for improving performance and filling in identified gaps.
