About this trial
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.
