A cytopathology examination for residents was developed to determine its usefulness and ability to measure learning in cytopathology. Seventy-five resident-training programs participated in this study, which involved 143 beginning, 158 intermediate and 71 advanced residents as well as 63 pathologists and 118 cytotechnologists who considered themselves experienced practitioners. Scores increased significantly with training and practice (mean = 51%, 61%, 65%, 72% and 72%, respectively), although there was much overlap among groups. Of the 100 multiple-choice questions, the 50 involving interpretation of photographs produced the highest scores and greatest differences between advanced residents and experienced practitioners. Visual recognition and grading of cancer cells and visual recognition of normal cellular elements were the areas of greatest resident weakness. Resident recognition of verbal criteria was worse than visual recognition. Different strengths were identified for pathologists and cytotechnologists.
为确定其在细胞病理学方面的实用性及衡量学习情况的能力，为住院医师开展了一项细胞病理学检查。75个住院医师培训项目参与了本研究，研究对象包括143名初级住院医师、158名中级住院医师和71名高级住院医师，以及63名病理学家和118名自认为经验丰富的细胞技术人员。尽管各小组之间存在很大重叠，但分数随着培训和实践显著提高（平均分分别为51%、61%、65%、72%和72%）。在100道多项选择题中，涉及照片解读的50道题得分最高，高级住院医师与经验丰富的从业者之间的差异也最大。癌细胞的视觉识别与分级以及正常细胞成分的视觉识别是住院医师最薄弱的领域。住院医师对文字标准的识别比视觉识别更差。病理学家和细胞技术人员表现出不同的优势。
