Analysis of Radiology Teaching Hours in Undergraduate Health Courses in Southern Brazil

58 average class hours were found for radiology-related subjects across Medicine, Physiotherapy, and Biomedicine courses in southern Brazil. The dataset was created by Gabriela Augusta Mateus Pereira from an analysis of course curricula at public and private undergraduate institutions. It likely contains tabular data on class hours and correlations between total course hours and radiology-specific instruction.

Use Cases

• Compare radiology instruction hours across different health science disciplines based on the described course analysis.
• Analyze correlations between total course hours and radiology-specific hours based on the reported Pearson's correlation coefficients.
• Assess curriculum heterogeneity for radiology teaching across institutions based on the described high variability in class hours.

Strengths

• Provides a specific average of 58 class hours for radiology-related subjects.
• Includes analysis across three distinct health science courses: Medicine, Physiotherapy, and Biomedicine.
• Compares data from both public and private undergraduate institutions in a defined geographic region (southern Brazil).

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
