UNM Neuroradiology Fellowship is patient centered and trainee focused, with a mission to promote fellow clinical and scholastic professional development via holistic methods, with emphasis on interpretative, procedural and non-interpretative expertise in diagnostic neuroradiology.
When looking for a neuroradiology fellowship there are many things to consider, so what can UNM offer for this. What we offer is a well-balanced program where you should feel confident coming out of our fellowship to be able to provide timely, well written reports, and be able to work well within a multidisciplinary team. Quality and patients care are a big part of our mission here. We are the only level one trauma center in the state, we have a large cancer center, a pediatric hospital, and stroke services. This give you an opportunity to get exposure to multiple pathologies ensuring you are able to see what you need to be prepared to practice on your own. We perform advance neuroimaging for our patients including spectroscopy, CT and MR perfusion, fMRI, and vessel wall imaging. For procedures there is plenty of opportunity to not only perform basic spine procedures, but to additionally work with others in and out of our department on more advanced spine procedures. Angiography opportunities are also available with fellows learning to interpret these exams and for those interested in obtaining more catheter skills.
The city of Albuquerque is a mid-sized city with lots of outdoor activities available to explore. With the backdrop of the Sandia Mountains there are many hiking and backpacking trails to explore and in the winter plenty of places to go skiing or snowboarding in the surrounding towns such as Santa Fe, Taos, and Durango. We enjoy all four seasons and have some of the best Mexican food in the country.
Hopefully this information gives you a little background of our program and why you should consider us for your neuroradiology fellowship training.
