dc.description.abstractIntroduction: We aimed to investigate the improvement in interpreting skills of posteroanterior chest x-rays, after a standardized chest x-ray interpreting program among primary care physicians. Methods: The study was conducted between March and April 2006. The study population consisted of all general practitioners working in Edirne, Turkey. Fifty two out of the all 97 invited physicians accepted to join. The course was a half-day program. A test was applied to the participants before and after the training. Results: The mean age was 36.02 +/- 7.63 years. Of the participants, 34 (65.4%) were male and 18 (34.6%) female. The participants were graduated between 1977 and 2005 and median graduation year was 1994. Mean scores of the pretest and final test were 41.05% +/- 12.92 and 75.83% +/- 14.43, respectively. The difference was statistically significant (t = -14.561, p < 0.001). There was a 124% raise in theoretical scores between pretest and final test, whereas it was 56% in practical scores (t and p respectively, -14.117; < 0.001 and -7.215; < 0.001). Conclusion: Structured education programs like this one have positive contribution to the knowledge and skills of the physicians. Undergraduate and postgraduate education on chest x-ray interpretation should be arranged for primary care physicians.en_US
