White Paper Appearing in JACR Results in Updated Scoring Language for RADPEER™

Based on the RADPEER Scoring White Paper, published in the January 2009 issue of the Journal of the American College of Radiology (JACR), both RADPEER and e-RADPEER™ now contain revised scoring language. Please note that the scoring language has changed and clinical significance has been added to scores of 2, 3 or 4. In addition, PET has been added as an additional modality.

RADPEER Scoring Language
Score	Meaning	Clinical Significance
1	Concur with interpretation
2	Discrepancy in Interpretation/not ordinarily expected to be made (understandable miss)	unlikely to be clinically significant likely to be clinically significant
3	Discrepancy in Interpretation/ should be made most of the time	unlikely to be clinically significant likely to be clinically significant
4	Discrepancy in Interpretation/ should be made almost every time - misinterpretation of finding	unlikely to be clinically significant likely to be clinically significant
