The Interventional Radiology (IR) fellowship is ACGME accredited and accepts one fellow annually. The fellow performs a wide range of procedures in both vascular and nonvascular interventions including biopsies, percutaneous fluid drainages, biliary interventions, angioplasty, thrombolysis, stents, TIPS and oncologic interventions (chemoembolization and radiofrequency ablation). There are five full-time attending IR faculty and two IR nurse practitioners. All training is performed at the University of New Mexico Hospital, the only Level 1 Trauma Center in the state of New Mexico.
Applicants to the IR fellowship must have successfully completed an ACGME accredited radiology residency program, must be certified by the American Board of Radiology at the time of starting the fellowship, and be eligible for licensure by the State of New Mexico Board of Medical Examiners.
