Comprehensive experience in chest and cardiac diseases, including CT, MRI, Intensive care radiology, and needle biopsy techniques. Exposure to daily film sessions and teaching conferences.
Comprehensive experience in imaging acute traumatic and non-traumatic conditions in the emergency radiology Division. This fellowship emphasizes newer imaging modalities in the diagnosis and evaluation of trauma, especially computed tomography, and three-dimensional computed tomography utilizing an advantage Windows workstation. Emergency Radiology visiting fellows will receive instruction during didactic teaching sessions, daily film review, teaching collection conferences, trauma rounds, and observation of procedures and teaching collection.
Covers conventional contrast examination, body imaging with ultrasound, CT and MR, abdominal interventional procedures including biopsies, abscess draining, biliary and renal interventions and gastrointestinal tract procedures including percutaneous gastrostomy and cholecystostomy. Gynecologic imaging emphasizes pelvic MR, transvaginal ultrasound and hysterosalpingography.
The MRI fellowship program introduces participants to both basic principles and advanced techniques in MR image acquisition and interpretation. No prior experience in MRI is necessary to benefit from this practical instruction. The fellowship places strong emphasis on the clinical use of MR imaging (protocol design, assessment of image quality, use of contrast agents, selection of appropriate coils and pulse sequences) and draws on the experience of MGH"s radiology staff in neuro, musculoskeletal, vascular and body imaging. The participant is exposed to the department’s rich case material in clinical readout sessions and conferences.
Extensive exposure to all of the imaging modalities as applied to sports medicine, rheumatology, musculoskeletal neoplasms, and general orthopedic surgery. A comprehensive laser disc teaching program in magnetic resonance imaging provides "state of the art" training in the anatomy and pathology of musculoskeletal disorders. Observation of a significant number of procedures including arthrograms, percutaneous needle biopsies of bone and soft tissue lesions, selective and non-selective epidural steroid injections, facet blocks, and therapeutic procedures like heat ablation of osteoid osteoma and therapeutic injections of joints, painful sites and certain benign tumors.
Complete and intensive exposure to basic and advanced clinical neuroimaging at MGH, where the neurological and neurosurgical case load is outstanding in complexity and volume. Available are all modern imaging modalities for the study of the brain, head and neck and spine including structural and functional MRI & MRA, CT, cerebral and spinal angiography, myelography, clinical PET, neuroembolization and cerebrovascular disease evaluated by ultrasound. Learning opportunities include multiple daily film review sessions, protocol development, observation of procedures and daily teaching conferences. Highlights include a) regular consultative conferences involving world renowned faculty from neuroradiology, neurology, neurosurgery and neuropathology; b) clinical applications of functional MRI in acute stroke, brain tumors and dementia; c) weekly brain cutting neuropathology correlative conference; d) weekly Grand Rounds.
Observation of daily activities on a busy clinical service and attendance at daily conference. Visiting Fellows participate in the interpretation of studies throughout the day. Continuous interaction with staff nuclear medicine physicians provides insights into current practice and interpretive approaches, although no teaching collection materials or specific didactic sessions are scheduled.
A comprehensive, educational experience emphasizing clinical correlations with all aspects of pediatric imaging, emergency room, intensive care, CT, MR and all aspects of pediatric ultrasound.
Observation of procedures; participation in work conferences and one to one teaching tailored to the specific needs of each visiting fellow. Procedures and topics include angioplasty; regional thrombolysis; superselective catheterization techniques; transcatheter embolization; inferior vena cava filter placement, general diagnostic angiography; stent placement, TIPS, venous access; chemo-embolization; ultrasound duplex imaging and color doppler, CT and MR imaging of blood vessels.
Exposure to all aspects of Breast Imaging including all procedures, screening exams, diagnostic exams, US, MRI, CT, and digital mammography
