The Department of Radiology provides high-quality medical education and training for medical students, residents, faculty, and fellow physicians.
Please note, we do not offer training for radiologic technicians and sonographers (ultrasound technicians).
Research
The Department of Radiology has a very active voluntary faculty and research is currently being carried out in a number of areas, including:
- Use of radioactive microspheres in treatment of hepatic malignancy
- Cardiac CT
- Minimally invasive imaging and treatment
- Augmented reality ultrasound
Clinical
The Department of Radiology’s faculty and affiliated radiologists at Radiology Associates of South Florida (RASF) and the Baptist Cardiac and Vascular Institute (BCVI) have published over 200 peer reviewed articles. The department’s faculty is nationally and internationally recognized for Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology and its membership in reputable national and international organizations.
Medical Student Education and Training
The Department of Radiology focuses on giving medical students a firm basis in the use of imaging procedures for the demonstration of normal anatomy and evaluation of disease. We achieve this by providing high-quality instruction, tailored to the period of students' education:
- Periods 1 and 2: Incorporation of imaging techniques demonstrating relevant anatomy and pathology into the relevant organ system courses
- Period 3: A 2-week imaging "bootcamp," incorporating active learning techniques and online resources
- Period 4: Specialty rotations in imaging for students seeking a more in-depth experience in specific areas, such as pediatric imaging, ultrasound and musculoskeletal imaging
