OBJECTIVE Due to the relative lack of standardization in the fellowship application processes for musculoskeletal radiology, program websites are of paramount importance as application resources. This study evaluates the comprehensiveness of these websites and the potential effects of program ACGME accreditation, region, and size on website comprehensiveness. MATERIALS AND METHODS The websites of musculoskeletal fellowship programs listed on the Society of Skeletal Radiology website were assigned a validated comprehensiveness score based on the presence of 19 specific informative components pertaining to the program's characteristics. The correlations of comprehensiveness scores with program ACGME accreditation, region, and size were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 90 musculoskeletal radiology fellowship program websites were reviewed, yielding a mean comprehensiveness score of 55.1% (10.5 out of 19 criteria). Only 3 of the 19 criteria-application information (88.9%), stand-alone webpage (87.8%), and affiliated hospital information (84.4%)-were present in more than 80% of all websites. Eleven criteria, most notably away rotation information (6.7% presence) and case log (0.0% presence), were absent from at least 50% of all websites. Program ACGME accreditation was correlated with significantly higher website comprehensiveness scores compared with non-accreditation (p = 0.087). CONCLUSION There is lack of sufficient, useful information and standardization on the websites of MSK fellowship programs throughout the country. According to our review and analysis, addition of specific information regarding each fellowship program and implementing some type of standardization may optimize fellowship matching for both applicants and the programs.

肌肉骨骼放射学研究金网站的分析。

目的由于肌肉骨骼放射学的研究金申请过程相对缺乏标准化，因此程序网站作为申请资源至关重要。这项研究评估了这些网站的全面性以及计划ACGME认证，区域和规模对网站全面性的潜在影响。材料和方法骨骼放射学学会网站上列出的肌肉骨骼研究金计划网站基于19个与该计划特征有关的特定信息成分的存在，被分配了经过验证的综合评分。评估了综合评分与计划ACGME认证，区域和规模的相关性。结果总共审查了90个肌肉骨骼放射学研究金计划网站，平均综合得分为55.1％（19个标准中的10.5）。在所有网站的80％以上中，只有19个标准应用程序信息中的3个（88.9％），独立网页（87.8％）和附属医院信息（84.4％）。至少有50％的网站缺少11个标准，最不重要的是轮换信息（6.7％的存在）和案例日志（0.0％的存在）。与非认证相比，计划ACGME认证与网站综合评分显着更高（p = 0.087）。结论全国各地的MSK奖学金计划的网站上缺乏足够，有用的信息和标准化。根据我们的审查和分析，
