Learning Curve for Ultrasound Assessment of Myometrial Infiltration in Endometrial Cancer Visualizing Videoclips: Potential Implications for Training

Abstract: Background: Diagnostic accuracy for estimating myometrial infiltration by ultrasound in endometrial cancer requires experience. The objective of this study is to determine the learning curve (LC) for assessing myometrial infiltration in cases of endometrial cancer using transvaginal ultrasound (TVS). Methods: Five trainees (one staff radiologist and four fourth-year OB/GYN residents) participated in this study. All trainees had experience in performing TVS, but none of them had specific training on the assessm… Show more

“…Recently, there are numerous publications studying the importance of training programs and the implementation of standardized techniques to evaluate MI in EC via TVS in order to achieve an improvement in diagnostic accuracy 30–32 . Xholi et al 31 conducted a retrospective study in order to evaluate the learning curve for TVS assessment of MI in women with EC.…”
