Level up your radiology case conferences: Preparing residents for success in oral board examinations using gamification

Abstract

The American Board of Radiology's new Diagnostic Radiology Oral Examination emphasizes clinical decision-making, communication, and critical thinking. Traditional "hot seat" case conferences remain a valuable way to prepare residents for these requirements. Incorporating game-based formats into these case conferences, such as “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?”, “Jeopardy!”, “Family Feud,” and “Kahoot!”, can make learning more dynamic and interactive. This review provides practical strategies for integrating these methods into radiology case conferences to enhance resident training and engagement.
