研究概览
简要总结
This is a prospective, interventional study aiming to develop and validate an ultrasound training program for gynecology and obstetrics residents, focused on the staging of gynecologic cancers, including ovarian, endometrial, and cervical cancer. The program consists of theoretical lectures, practical hands-on sessions, and supervised clinical case evaluations over a six-month period. Residents will perform ultrasound examinations independently, which will be compared to those conducted by expert sonographers. The primary objective is to assess the learning curve of each trainee by evaluating diagnostic concordance with expert findings across specific staging parameters.

研究组 & 干预措施
Training Group
Gynecology and obstetrics residents enrolled in a structured ultrasound training program focused on staging of gynecologic cancers. The program includes theoretical lessons, supervised hands-on sessions, and independent ultrasound assessments compared with expert findings.
干预措施: Training Group (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Agreement Rate Between Residents and Experts in Ultrasound-Based Staging of Gynecologic Cancers
时间窗: Up to 6 months (from the start to the end of the training program)
Assessment of the diagnostic concordance between ultrasound staging performed by residents and expert sonographers, measured across defined anatomical and pathological parameters (e.g., lymph node involvement, carcinomatosis, tumor size and spread). Concordance will be quantified as the percentage of agreement per case and per parameter.
