I am a 3rd year US medical student, I am not a US citizen and I am on an F1 visa. I initially came to the US with a J1 visa through a high school exchange program and I already have the 2year home residency requirement which I have not yet fulfilled. My issue is that I am ineligible for H1b for...

Hey guys, I am a 3rd year DO Student looking to match in an allopathic radiology residency. Anybody out there have any experience they can share regarding what helped them on their road to matching into an allopathic program? Specifically how important is step 2 and did you do multiple...

When in med school I was told that radiology was impossibly hard to get in the US for IMGs. But in the last few years Ive read that it is not as competitive as it used to be (doom in job market I hear). But there are barely any discussion groups on this forum about Radiology IMG match 2016/2015...

Hey guys! I wanted to know your opinions on the following list. I have an idea of where I want to rank them based on location but wanted to know your thoughts on how they should be ranked based on quality of training and I guess "feel" of the program if you have been on any of these interviews...

Dear colleagues & attending radiologists, I've found vast amount of information regarding the ABR alternate pathway hovewer I couldn't find any info for compensation after fellowship a.k.a 'junior faculty' years. Is it like eg. pgy-7? I'd appreciate any info you can share.

I have a step 1 222 and comlex I 541 and I'm interested in matching to ACGME diagnostic radiology. Is it necessary that I take the Step II CK or will the Level II CE suffice?

Hey all, I thought I'd change it up here and ask some opinions on some programs I'm having trouble separating in the Midwest. Too many Californians/NE people on SDN! Haha. So far, I have CCF, Indiana, Wisconsin, NW, and UPMC as my top 5. I did not get interviews to Mayo, MIR, or Michigan (1st...

Just wondering if any of you guys have any insight into a nuclear fellowship after radiology residency. I love the nucs part of rads, and just wanted to know why it seems so unpopular. It's never listed on the top 5 fellowships that radiology residents go into on the various program pages on...

Another current applicant for rads done with interviews and having trouble ranking. I would ask someone else, but my rads advisor is extremely biased towards my home institution. I also have a few friends in residency but they self-admit they are biased on where they want me to go (they want me...

Hi, I am looking for a book to help teach me how to describe abnormalities on radiographic images using medical/radiologist terminology. For example, diffuse, well defined, nodules, consolidation, using this kind of terminology to describe abnormalities on X-rays, what they mean, where to use...

So, I was bored and looking through ACGME fellowships and found it interesting that there are now only 6 total ACGME accredited endovascular surgical neuroradiology fellowships left. 3 in rads: Cleveland Clinic, WashU, Johns Hopkins 2 in neurosurgery: Barrow, Univ. of Florida 1 in...

In 2016 I will be completing my PGY3 as a PHO (sort of equivalent as 1st year radiology resident) in nuclear medicine (12 months worth). Have also done 12 months as a paid intern (rotating), 6 months as a JHO (rotating) and 6 months as a PHO in Rad Onc prior to this. I am Australian. Haven't...

Hi, USAF kindly approved me to take a leave of absence from active duty to pursue radiology residency. Anyone know of any programs with an open R1 diagnostic radiology to start July 1, 2016? Background: Categorical gen surg washout in PGY4 year in combined military/civilian program. My...

I definitely want to do IR. Top 10 DR vs Top 5 DR. Ann Arbor vs Baltimore. Clinical pathway with surgery heavy intern year but resulting in great clinical interventionalist vs Cusher intern year, less surgery/IR months but still a good interventionalist. Guaranteed IR and DR training vs DR...

Multiple radiology advisers and residents have suggested that "residency-driven" programs provide a better radiology training experience, as opposed to "fellow-driven" programs. For example, people state that residency-driven programs generate residents that are better able to act independently...

Hi SDN, Been a member for awhile now and I've gotten lots of good advice from here over the years, and now I'm looking for some more feedback. Im a 3rd year DO student stuck between a few specialties. I have a top 3 or 4, but can't commit to any single specialty yet. Step 1 >245, COMLEX low...

I am currently in my prelim year and I am set to start my first year (pgy-2) in radiology in NY next year. I would like to move to Pittsburgh for family reasons and I am looking to swap my NY position. (I am open to swap for a position in Philadelphia as well)

Hey everyone! As match season gets underway (and I'm sipping hot chocolate in my scrubs on an overnight call) I couldn't help but get nostalgic about all the fun ya'll are about to have! All of you will be getting loads of advice from classmates, residents, and family (don't leave them out!)...

Hi everyone, I am a 2nd year medical student who is stuck on Radiology as a career. I was just wondering what the different possible paths to radiology are if, say, I get an average Step 1 score. (ie. is it possible to do internal and then fellowship in radio? or something else along those...

Hi, I have been following the forum since ERAS opened and I am getting very worried as I have only received ONE interview invitation for a preliminary position. However, I received about 7 radiology invitations already. I applied to about 50 IM prelim, 25 Surgical Prelim and 15 Transitional...
