Diagnostic Radiology Residency at Farmington Hills

The Radiology Residency at Corewell Health Farmington Hills Hospital is a five-year program incorporating didactic and clinical components. The first year is completed in the Internal Medicine Residency at Corewell Health Farmington Hills Hospital and will include two months of radiology at the end of the PGY-1 year, at which time, residents will begin to make the transition to the Radiology Residency program. Beginning at the end of the PGY-1 year and progressively thereafter, the overall approach is to develop the resident's ability to evaluate and interpret various imaging modalities as they relate to the patients’ clinical presentation, and for the resident to become proficient in various radiologic interventional procedures.

The two main goals of this program are to provide 

• a diversified, high quality training experience that will prepare the physician for the practice of general diagnostic radiology 
• the requirements that lead to certification by the American Board of Radiology 

These goals are accomplished by interdepartmental exposure, integrating the training program with other departments within the institution and by affiliation with the Statewide Campus System of Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine (MSUCOM). 

• 330-bed hospital with Level II Trauma status
• Major teaching facility with 174 residents and 15 accredited residency and fellowship program
