Rotation Highlights
Body MR
- Includes all MRs of the abdomen and pelvis (~30-40 exams/day)
- Busy oncologic MR service, including hepatobiliary, pancreatic, renal, rectal, gynecologic, and prostate cancers. High volume of pre- and post-treatment imaging for liver-directed therapies, radiation therapy, and oncologic surgeries
- Non-oncologic MRs, including MR angiography, liver elastography, dynamic pelvic floor imaging/defecography, preoperative benign gynecologic disease
- >15 clinical MR scanners, including top of the line 3T GE and Siemens scanners with the latest sequences
- 2 Gb e-book downloadable on iPad (iOS) includes the body MR curriculum as well as embedded written and video content, both original and from international experts
Body CT
- Includes CTs of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis as well as CT angiography
- Diverse caseload, including high volume of oncologic and non-oncologic CTs. Busy cancer center, level 1 trauma center, and transplant service
- Current generation GE and Siemens CT scanners. Routine use of dual-energy CT and deep-learning image reconstruction
- Close relationship with GE HealthCare, which is sited within 15 minutes of campus
- Dedicated 3D lab performs image post-processing
- Research includes further optimization and utilization of dual-energy technology, deep-learning image reconstruction, and low kVp techniques
Ultrasound
- Abdominal, pelvic, small parts, and vascular ultrasound
- Exposure to liver, kidney, and pancreas transplant ultrasounds and shear wave elastography
- Perform thyroid FNAs; opportunities to perform paracenteses and thoracenteses
Radiology Procedures
- Soft tissue biopsies performed using CT and/or ultrasound guidance - abdominal organ, intraperitoneal/retroperitoneal lesions, and lymph nodes
- CT- and/or ultrasound-guided percutaneous and transrectal/transvaginal drainage procedures
- Advanced Radiologic Procedure clinic streamlines consultation and is coordinated by radiology extenders, including dedicated MAs and NPs/PAs
- Emphasis on a comprehensive team approach with staff radiologists, trainees, physician extenders, radiology nurses/anesthesiologists, and technologists
- Siemens Edge 64-channel interventional CT with rapid fluoroscopic CT imaging, 3D CT guidance, and automatic needle tracking capabilities
The non-vascular interventional radiology elective includes comprehensive training ensuring that the fellow-instructor is involved with preprocedural, periprocedural, and postprocedural planning. Our graduating fellow-instructors are able to perform the full gamut of image-guided biopsy and drainage procedures. This marketable skillset can provide additional employment options in academic or private practice positions.
Musculoskeletal MR
- Participation in both outpatient and hospital-based settings
- Imaging for the Milwaukee Brewers and Milwaukee Bucks
- Close relationship between the abdominal and musculoskeletal sections with several faculty members participating in both sub-specialties
- Interdisciplinary sports medicine and orthopedic oncology conferences are optional
- CT- and ultrasound-guided soft tissue/bone biopsies are optional
- 2 Gb e-book also includes the musculoskeletal curriculum with embedded written and video content
The inclusion of musculoskeletal MR provides an additional skillset for those considering private practice or outpatient-based academic positions. The fellow-instructor can bolster their MSK skills by electing to interpret other imaging modalities, participate in procedures, and attend sub-specialty conferences.
Moonlighting
Evening shifts are available for monitoring IV contrast administration at some of the outpatient imaging centers.
