Pediatric Diagnostic Imaging and Radiology

Students participate in clinical rounds, teaching conferences, case discussions, research conferences, and journal reviews. Observation will be in Diagnostic Radiology, Ultrasound, Nuclear Medicine, Computed Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Fluoroscopy, Body Imaging, Neuro Imaging, Interventional Radiology, and Fetal Imaging. Student/faculty tutorials will occur during observation. Students will be expected to give an oral presentation on a clinical case encountered during the month, perform clinical-radiological correlation on active patients and read significant imaging literature. Problem solving will be stressed. Night call is not required but suggest observing two night calls in four weeks. Attendance is required at the radiology resident conferences which typically coincide with pediatric conferences. There may be limited interactions with pediatric residents during their elective time.
