Corewell Health Hospitals in Southeast Michigan conduct over a million studies a year and provide a diverse array of imaging modalities and pathology, which are read by numerous outstanding fellowship-trained faculty who make resident education a priority.
Our program is categorical with a transitional year included. This allows residents the opportunity to work alongside clinicians and patients that they will later serve as radiologists. Residents take one month of radiography during their transitional year, introducing them to the department and allowing a level of comfortability in dictating cases. The transition to the radiology department takes place in June of their transitional year with the radiology bootcamp. The eight DR residents will undergo a 16-day bootcamp orientation to our department made up of eight 2-day mini rotations to get acclimated to each division of radiology that they will rotate through in their R1 year./p>
Following the transitional year, residents will continue to stay on campus for all rotations. Residents are divided between inpatient and outpatient areas, with some sections combining the inpatient and outpatient studies together. Our rotation schedule is set in 13 separate blocks of 4 weeks each.
