We offer an Abdominal and Oncologic Imaging Fellowship position for a one-year term. Fellowship experience may involve all of the following:
Teaching environment with attending faculty supervision
Can be tailored to some extent to the interests of successful candidates: Outpatient and inpatient abdominal (and pelvic) and oncology radiology, particularly MRI, MDCT, Ultrasound and General GI/GU Radiology
Our non-accredited fellows may have the opportunity to serve as attending radiologists outside their fellowship area, for up to approximately 20% time, after sufficient time in fellowship (typically 3 months) for us to assess clinical skills and interests.
Attending assignments are for mutually agreeable services, based on our clinical needs and a fellow's comfort level/skill set. For those interested in and qualified for these assignments, we offer substantial extra compensation.
