TI  - The status of the clinicopathologic conference in academic medical centers.
PG  - 60-2
AB  - To determine the current level of use, characteristics, and perceived value of 
      the clinicopathologic conference (CPC), we sent a 22-item survey questionnaire to 
      the program directors of internal medicine residency training programs. Of the 
      278 residency training programs that returned questionnaires, 221 (80%) indicated 
      that they held CPCs regularly. The conference received a mean rating (Likert 
      scale 1 = best to 5 = worst) of 2.2 (95% confidence interval 2.2, 2. 3) for both 
      its perceived educational value and its popularity. The CPC remains widely used 
      in internal medicine training programs. Although relatively few programs have 
      rigorous guidelines for preparation and evaluation of their presentations, the 
      CPC is generally viewed as being popular and having sound educational value.
