At the end of training, the fellow will have mastered the basics of patient care and management and interventional methods for the treatment of patients with tumors, complex cerebral vascular disease, and trauma. Daily participation in all aspects of patient care, research and teaching activities by the fellows is expected. Fellows provide coverage and have joint appointments at the Columbia and Cornell campuses. One position is available in the Nuclear Radiology Residency that may be taken following residency training in Diagnostic Radiology. Training at Children's Hospital of NY, the birthplace of this exciting subspecialty, will result in a year of intellectual stimulation and exposure to high volume and a varied caseload.
Pediatric radiologists are in short supply.
Now is a great time to join the field. This academic division provides a broad-based fellowship with experience in the entire subspecialty. The Interventional Radiology division has undergone a major change in faculty, emphasis, and direction. The program leads a number of national multicenter device trials and is involved in all aspects of the discipline. A busy vascular and liver transplant service supplies the entire spectrum of endovascular, TIPS, stent-graft, biliary, UFE, malignancy, GU, pediatric, dialysis, and venous interventions are common.
