It is the policy of the Radiology Department that faculty dictates these examinations. The fellow performs all pediatric ultrasounds and dictates the cases while on service. All of these examinations are appropriately supervised. The fellow spends a complete month on MRI and pediatric neuroradiology. Trainees are encouraged to participate in research projects through an optional research month.
Interested trainees can also arrange for research time on a weekly basis as is appropriate.
The submission of abstracts to the Radiological Society of North America and Society for Pediatric Radiology is encouraged. Trainees post a Pediatric Case of the Month on the NYU web site. The fellow is responsible for teaching both residents and medical students. The fellow supplements the resident and medical student teaching done by the faculty and when appropriate, gives sectional conferences under the supervision of the faculty. The faculty supervised daily work rounds conducted by the fellow comprises an important component of this teaching.
