Complementación y actualización de las herramientas virtuales de aprendizaje del departamento de radiología e imágenes diagnosticas en la enseñanza de estudiantes de medicina de VI semestre en la Universidad Nacional de Colombia

Abstract

Introduction: The correct request and interpretation of diagnostic images is a skill required by the general practitioner, to acquire from undergraduate. The Department of Diagnostic Images of the National University, understanding this need, is involved in the undergraduate training in a curricular manner through the subjects of introduction to diagnostic images and diagnostic images of VI and VII semesters, respectively. The subject of Introduction to diagnostic images since 2015 has contacted a mixed learning system that has been successful, requiring continuity, updating and complementation in virtual learning objects and in the evaluation mechanisms. Methodology: The design of 2 modules with virtual learning objects focused on traumatic musculoskeletal pathology, and the radiological semiology of the thorax is proposed. Their design conforms to the ADDIE instructional design system (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation). Results: The proposed modules were developed, in the case of the thoracic radiology semiology module, a multimedia dictionary was prepared with the main concepts of the Fleischner Society Glossary in its 2008 version, and in the musculoskeletal trauma module, they included the main radiological descriptors of the fractures, their classifications, and their main complications, both modules with images obtained from the National University Hospital of Colombia, and cases of the institutional teaching archive. Conclusions: The creation of virtual learning strategies simplifies of the educational process, and reinforce the knowledge required by medical students, for the global interpretation of diagnostic images
