Neuroradiology Fellowship
The Diagnostic Neuroradiology Fellowship is an ACGME accredited program, requiring a 1 or 2
year commitment. Candidates must be Board Certified or Board Eligible radiologists. The
program is designed to be a well-balanced academic training program that encompasses all of
the basic and advanced, clinical and research areas, of both adult and pediatric
neuroradiology. The overall goals of this Fellowship are two-fold: to produce
neuroradiologists with the highest level of clinical expertise, and to produce the future
leaders in academic neuroradiology. To meet these goals, fellows participate in clinical,
research, and educational aspects of neuroradiology.
During the course of the Fellowship, neuroradiology fellows will be exposed to all imaging
modalities used to evaluate neurologic disease, including CT, MR, myelography, angiography,
ultrasound, nuclear medicine and radiographic studies. Interventional neuroradiologic
procedures are also performed at state-of-the-art levels at OHSU, and neuroradiology fellows
will actively participate in these procedures.
Fellows will also gain experience in diverse neurology, neurosurgery, ENT and
neuro-ophthalmology programs, including centers in stroke, epilepsy, and Alzheimer's
disease combined with an outstanding research experience. Collaboration with the clinical
and research neuroscience services at OHSU, as well as the neuroscience division of the
Oregon Regional Primate Center, and an experienced group of MR physics and image analysis
personnel, provide fellows with a unique opportunity for training in academic neuroradiology
at the highest level.
OHSU sees a wide range of both common and uncommon clinical neurological and neurosurgical
diseases in both the adult and pediatric populations. The advanced MR and CT capabilities,
excellent support from MR and radiology physicists, CT and MRI technologists, and
appropriately trained nurses provide a well-balanced academic training program in
diagnostic neuroradiology.
