  • Residents learn diagnostic imaging from subspecialty and modality experts spanning the breadth of radiology.
  • Training in breast imaging, vascular and interventional procedures, and radiation physics round out a comprehensive curriculum that meets or exceeds American Board of Radiology (ABR) requirements.
  • Specialty rotations are assigned at levels of increasing sophistication and experience. Individual responsibilities for procedures, imaging interpretation, teaching, and consultation are expanded as the resident advances through the program.
  • The Department of Imaging Sciences performs over 1.2 million examinations annually at Strong Memorial Hospital and across the imaging enterprise
