Curriculum Overview
Five-Year Residency
The five-year Diagnostic Radiology Residency includes an initial transitional clinical year, followed by four years of diagnostic radiology, all within the same program. Another option exists to enter radiology training at the PGY-2 level. The clinical year can be tailored to the interests of the individual resident, but will include basic medical and surgical rotations and two months in radiology. Subsequent years follow the sample
Schedule of Rotations.
A highlight of the residency program is a fourth-year (PGY 4), six-week rotation at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP), in Washington, D.C., with access to an international array of cases. Rotations at the nearby Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children also provides unique supplemental training.
