ObjectiveTo analyze the perception of the relevance of introducing bilingual
(Portuguese-English) musculoskeletal imaging education into radiology and
diagnostic imaging residency programs, describing the method used.Materials and MethodsTo evaluate the relevance of incorporating the bilingual study of
musculoskeletal imaging into medical residency programs, we administered a
questionnaire, consisting of several multiple-choice questions and one
subjective question, to 21 radiology residents at a private tertiary
hospital. The residents completed the questionnaire voluntarily and
anonymously.ResultsIntegrating English teaching into radiology training was considered important
by 95.2% of the residents. Approximately 90% of residents believe that the
method applied at their institution is suitable for learning.ConclusionThe introduction of the English language into the teaching of musculoskeletal
imaging in the radiology residency program was perceived positively by the
residents, and the preceptors effectively supported those activities.
