Determine the educational background, research publications/presentations experience, and rates of research publication and presentation inaccuracies in applications to a Canadian diagnostic imaging residency program. The education and publication/presentation sections of the Canadian Resident Matching Service form for all applicants to the University of Saskatchewan diagnostic imaging residency program from 2019-20 and 2020-21 were reviewed. Number of advanced degrees (Master's/PhDs), publications, and presentations were recorded. Accuracy of publications listed was confirmed via PubMed-MEDLINE, journal's website, or internet searching. Accuracy of presentations was confirmed via society and residency program websites. Inaccuracies of non-authorship, incorrect authorship order/status (self-promotion or demotion), and nonexistence of article/presentation from a verifiable source were recorded. There were a total of 106 applicants. Thirty (28%) had advanced degrees. There were 230 publications from 61 applicants with inaccuracies in only 5 (2%) of the publications (2 self-promotion, 3 self-demotion). For the 77 publications listed as pending, 25 (31%) were published within 6 months of applications deadlines with 1 non-authorship, 1 self-promotion, and 1 self-demotion. For scientific presentations, there were 467 listed presentations by 91 applicants. Two hundred and twenty-one presentations were from verifiable sources with inaccuracies in 28 (13%) of presentations (9 self-promotion, 9 self-demotion, 1 non-authorship, and 9 non-existence). Despite some uncertainty with scientific articles reported as pending and scientific presentations, radiology residency applicants are accurately representing their published articles with a negligible number of misrepresentations. Canadian radiology residency programs should regard the publication profiles of the applicants with a high level of confidence.
确定申请加拿大诊断成像住院医师项目人员的教育背景、研究出版物/报告经历，以及研究出版物和报告的错误率。对2019 - 20年和2020 - 21年申请萨斯喀彻温大学诊断成像住院医师项目的所有申请人在加拿大住院医师匹配服务表中的教育和出版物/报告部分进行了审查。记录了高级学位（硕士/博士）的数量、出版物和报告。通过PubMed - MEDLINE、期刊网站或互联网搜索确认所列出版物的准确性。通过协会和住院医师项目网站确认报告的准确性。记录非作者身份错误、作者顺序/状态错误（自我提升或贬低）以及可核实来源的文章/报告不存在的情况。总共有106名申请人。30人（28%）拥有高级学位。61名申请人有230篇出版物，其中只有5篇（2%）存在错误（2篇自我提升，3篇自我贬低）。对于列为待发表的77篇出版物，25篇（31%）在申请截止日期后的6个月内发表，其中有1篇非作者身份错误、1篇自我提升和1篇自我贬低。对于科学报告，91名申请人列出了467份报告。221份报告来自可核实来源，其中28份（13%）存在错误（9篇自我提升，9篇自我贬低，1篇非作者身份错误，9篇不存在）。尽管对于报告为待发表的科学文章和科学报告存在一些不确定性，但放射科住院医师申请人对其已发表文章的陈述准确，错误陈述数量可忽略不计。加拿大放射科住院医师项目应高度信任地看待申请人的出版物情况。
