Sumario:In 2017, our tertiary hospital-based imaging practice transitioned from score-based peer review to the peer learning methodology for learning and improvement. In our subspecialized practice, peer learning submissions are reviewed by domain experts, who then provide feedback to individual radiologists, curate cases for group learning sessions, and develop associated improvement initiatives. In this paper, we share lessons learned from our abdominal imaging peer learning submissions with the assumption that trends in our practice likely mimic others', and hope that other practices can avoid future errors and elevate the level of the quality of their own performance. Adoption of a nonjudgmental and efficient method to share peer "learning opportunities" and "great calls" has increased participation in this activity and increased transparency into our practice, thus allowing for visualization of trends in performance. Peer learning allows us to bring our own individual knowledge and practices together for group review in a collegial and safe environment. We learn from each other and decide how to improve together.
