Emergency Radiology Fellowship Program
Sidebar
Program Overview
We are pleased to offer an Emergency Radiology fellowship. This is a one-year non-ACGME accredited program accepting two fellows per year.
Our program will prepare you for an exciting career in emergency radiology. You will interpret studies from both the University of Louisville Health System and Norton Children's Hospital.
The interpretation of studies and training will primarily occur at the UofL Health - UofL Hospital.
Our fellow radiologists are part of a multidisciplinary team providing diagnosis and treatment plans for ER patients in collaboration with the emergency medicine unit, heart care, trauma center, urgent care, surgery, pathology and stroke.
As in emergency radiology practice, our fellows will work days, evening and overnight (much less frequent) shifts, in a balance that provides optimal training and experience for future emergency radiology practice.
The program strives to promote the mission of the University of Louisville School of Medicine and the Department of Radiology by providing excellence in clinical imaging, education and research through increased subspecialty experience, high-quality compassionate care and leadership in emergency radiology.
