In today's medical landscape, rapidly learning vast amounts of information requires innovative learning methods. Spaced repetition tools (like Anki) aid efficient knowledge absorption and retention among medical trainees. Yet, adoption of these tools in radiology medical student education lags despite proven effectiveness. This article highlights spaced repetition as a learning tool alongside other evidence-based educational practices, aiming to revolutionize radiology education among medical students. We (1) describe the educational theory and current application of spaced repetition in the setting of other learning techniques often found in undergraduate medical education; (2) underscore the underutilization of tools such as Anki in radiology education; and (3) offer practical guidance for educators interested in integrating spaced repetition into their teaching methodologies.
在当今的医学领域，快速学习大量信息需要创新的学习方法。间隔重复工具（如Anki）有助于医学生高效吸收和保留知识。然而，尽管已证实其有效性，但这些工具在放射医学学生教育中的应用仍然滞后。本文强调间隔重复作为一种学习工具，与其他循证教育实践相结合，旨在彻底改变医学生的放射学教育。我们（1）描述间隔重复在本科医学教育中常见的其他学习技巧背景下的教育理论和当前应用；（2）强调Anki等工具在放射学教育中的未充分利用；（3）为有兴趣将间隔重复纳入其教学方法的教育工作者提供实用指导。
