Research Overview

Residents are encouraged to participate in clinical and basic science projects as a component of a comprehensive education. Residents within the Department of Imaging Sciences have been recognized nationally for innovative research. Many give formal presentations at major national radiologic meetings and publish their work in peer-reviewed journals.
