RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: A website dedicated to body computed tomography (CT) offers users the opportunity to submit any question to a national expert. The purpose of this study was to characterize inquiries submitted over a 1-year period.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 408 questions posed by users between February 2003 and February 2004 were reviewed and categorized. Web tracking was conducted to evaluate the program utilization over a 3-year period.
RESULTS: Of the questions submitted, those addressing data acquisition protocols and intravenous contrast administration comprised 55% (224/408). Web tracking demonstrated that the number of visits to this educational program has progressively increased since 2003.
CONCLUSIONS: Users requesting information were most interested in the proper performance of CT data acquisition. An Internet-based expert corner is a promising channel to deliver experience based radiologic information.
