NCT ID NCT05427838
First seen Nov 21, 2025 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 21 times
Summary
This study looked at whether online training can improve how well emergency department doctors interpret CT head scans. 173 clinicians from 6 UK hospitals took part. One group received training right away, while a control group got it later. Their scan readings were compared to official radiologist reports to measure accuracy. Patient care was not affected because doctors still relied on radiologist reports for treatment decisions.
