BACKGROUND Our health system set out to improve services to patients from the LGBTQ community as a step towards decreasing disparities in care. MATERIALS AND METHODS A pilot education intervention targeting staff knowledge and skills regarding terminology with regards to gender fluidity and sexual orientation was designed and implemented. RESULTS 81 staff members participated and we found improvements in knowledge but there remain uncertainties that can be addressed in future training sessions. CONCLUSIONS LGBTQ staff education in radiology is feasible and effective. Additional education interventions may be necessary to address persistent knowledge gaps. Effects on patient acre are yet unknown.
