The Diagnostic Radiology Residency Program
at the Oregon Health & Science University is fully accredited by the Accreditation
Council for Graduate Medical Education and meets all of the requirements
of the American Board of Radiology. This four-year program is designed
to offer an educational experience that encompasses all imaging techniques,
including all aspects of plain film diagnosis, diagnostic ultrasound, magnetic
resonance imaging, nuclear medicine, and interventional radiology.
The program is designed to provide balance between supervised case interpretation,
didactic lectures, research opportunity, and patient care.
Residents who complete this program choose
careers in both private practice and academic radiology and may further
specialize in diagnostic radiology. Historically, 75 - 80% of the
graduates seek further subspecialization in a fellowship although this
percentage is now increasing. Residents, although welcome to stay
at OHSU for their fellowship, are encouraged to obtain fellowships at other
institutions. Our residents obtain fellowships at other top-notch
programs, most recently at UCSF, Johns Hopkins, Mallinckrodt Institute,
University of Colorado, University of Utah, University of Washington,
and Stanford. Others have remained at OHSU for the fellowship or
gone directly into private practice. The Department offers fellowships
in body imaging, cardiopulmonary imaging, interventional radiology, musculoskeletal
radiology, neuroradiology, neurointerventional radiology, nuclear medicine, pediatric radiology,
and women's imaging.
