“…This finding is not intuitive, because error rates would be expected to decrease with more experience. Similar traineelevel patterns of discrepancies have been described by other researchers with body CT (major discrepancies) 16 and head CT 5 interpretations. Because of the small number of cases read by residents in this study, bias from sampling error cannot be discounted as a cause.…”
