Pitfalls in the ultrasonographic diagnosis of gallbladder diseases.

Ultrasonography is rapidly replacing radiological techniques of gallbladder investigation. While ultrasonography is highly accurate, there are technical, anatomical and diagnostic pitfalls which will trap the unwary. This presentation highlights the pitfalls which we have encountered, reviews the literature in this area and suggests techniques whereby these pitfalls may be avoided.

Inter-observer variation in the triage-process

Background Triage algorithms for sorting patients according to their severity of illness have recently been implemented at several emergency departments in Denmark. Clinical effectiveness and safety depend on standardization of the triage process. We implemented a 5-level triage algorithm for which triage nurses underwent an initial training. The aim of this study was to evaluate the degree of ...

Inter-observer variation between pathologists in diffuse parenchymal lung disease.

BACKGROUND There have been few inter-observer studies of diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD), but the recent ATS/ERS consensus classification provides a basis for such a study. METHODS A method for categorising numerically the percentage likelihood of these differential diagnoses was developed, and the diagnostic confidence of pathologists using this classification and the reproducibility...

HRCT diagnosis of diffuse parenchymal lung disease: inter-observer variation.

BACKGROUND This study was designed to measure inter-observer variation between thoracic radiologists in the diagnosis of diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD) using high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) and to identify areas of difficulty where expertise, in the form of national panels, would be of particular value. METHODS HRCT images of 131 patients with DPLD (from a tertiary referra...

Improving inter-observer variability in the evaluation of ultrasonographic features of polycystic ovaries

BACKGROUND We recently reported poor inter-observer agreement in identifying and quantifying individual ultrasonographic features of polycystic ovaries. Our objective was to determine the effect of a training workshop on reducing inter-observer variation in the ultrasonographic evaluation of polycystic ovaries. METHODS Transvaginal ultrasound recordings from thirty women with polycystic ovary...
