Objective The SPARK imaging teaching case library was applied to the internship teaching of undergradu-ates majoring in medical imaging,and its application effect was discussed,so as to provide a reference for the practical teaching of medical imaging in other teaching bases.Methods A total of 71 radiology rotation undergraduates majoring in medical imaging at Hangzhou First People'Hospital from July 2017 to June 2023,with an 18-week rotation,were se-lected.They were divided into an experimental group of 34 students(July 2020-June 2023)and a control group of 37 students(July 2017-June 2020)based on rotation time.The experimental group adopted sub-specialty image diagnostic report writing and the SPARK image teaching case library learning model,while the control group adopted sub-specialty image diagnostic report writing and conventional learning methods.The image reading scores of the two groups were com-pared in mid-term and final assessments,and the teaching effects were also evaluated through questionnaires.Results The scores of image reading in the initial,mid-term,and final assessments for the experimental and the control groups were 60(60,70)and 70(60,70)(Z=0.817,P>0.05),80(80,90)and 70(60,80)(Z=-5.047,P<0.001),80(80,90)and 70(70,80)(Z=-4.811,P<0.001),respectively.The results of the generalized estimation equa-tion analysis showed that the mid-term assessment score increased by 11.127 points(P<0.001),and the final assess-ment score increased by 14.085 points(P<0.001)compared with the control group,and the test group increased by 7.443 points(P<0.001).In terms of understanding and memorizing key points,enhancing self-learning ability,litera-ture research ability,professional interest,and clinical decision-making ability,the experimental group rated the teaching methods higher than the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The SPARK image teaching case library can enhance the comprehensive learning ability of undergraduate students majoring in medical imaging and has great application value.
