The resident will participate in classroom and laboratory instruction as part of their training program. Regular participation in the laboratory portion of the course will be expected. The level of participation will depend on time commitments necessary for completion of Masters Degree. The resident will have constant subjective evaluation when involved in film reading with the faculty. During the first year initial formal evaluations by the faculty will occur at 6 and 12 months.
All faculty provide an analysis of the resident's ability, capabilities, and productivity.
Our staff and faculties from other services are consulted for comments and input. The section chief and the resident's advisor will discuss the results of these evaluations with the resident. If the faculty feels that a problem exists, evaluation may occur at any time and the resident will be placed on probation. This probation will be for a minimum 6-month period with an interim review after 3 months. A letter giving details of reasons for probation will be given to the resident.
