Aquifer Radiology

Aquifer Radiology’s virtual patient cases are realistic case scenarios that demonstrate best practices—helping students develop clinical reasoning skills that bridge the gap from classroom to practice. In an era of the increasing importance of evidence-based decision-making and reliance on imaging, an understanding of the principles and applications of radiology is vital for today’s healthcare professionals. The National Board of Medical Examiners has recognized this by increasing the imaging component of all United States Medical Licensing Examination exams.

The 21 interactive virtual patient cases in Aquifer Radiology deliver on the learning objectives of the Association of Academic Radiology (AAR) and the Alliance of Medical Student Educators in Radiology (AMSER) medical student curriculum.

I like that these cases are real-life scenarios and very applicable to the patients I see in clinic with my mentors. I feel just by doing these cases in a few days, my experience in family medicine has improved by leaps and bounds and my mentors can see a marked improvement and change in me, even down to how I interact with patients and present myself. Thank you so much Aquifer, you're a lifesaver!
