This press release was updated Feb. 13 to reflect that there are two phases of the ACR initiative which will help radiology residents, fellows, and practicing radiologists enhance oral case review skills and interpretation.

The American College of Radiology® (ACR®), through the ACR Institute for Radiologic Pathology™ (AIRP®), introduces a comprehensive suite of educational experiences to help radiology residents, fellows, and practicing radiologists enhance oral case review skills and interpretation. 

“These interactive resources provide a systematic approach designed to help learners obtain, organize and retain the information they need to approach Oral Case review with confidence and perform to the best of their ability,” said Ana P. Lourenco, MD, FACR, chair of the AIRP Advisory Committee. 

This two-phase ACR initiative includes case review and presentation skills, test stress reduction techniques, and intensive simulation experience found nowhere else:

  • Phase 1: Online Video Series (available now) Led by Dr. Petra Lewis, this open-access series builds essential case presentation skills, and offers strategies for managing exam pressure and anxiety, describing pertinent positives and negatives, and making a case for the favored diagnosis. 
  • Phase 2: AIRP Advanced Rad-Path Case Review Course (Starting Sept. 2026) A 5-day, hands-on course for R4 residents and fellows, featuring subspecialty imaging reviews and interactive learning via the RadPix platform. Offered in Silver Spring, MD. 

“ACR has created a one-stop shopping experience to help attendees gain greater confidence in discussing radiologic cases “on the fly”, ultimately Allowing them to provide better patient care during their career,” said Priscilla Jennings Slanetz, MD, MPH, FACR, chair of the ACR Commission on Publications and Lifelong Learning.
