Neuroradiology Fellowship

As a thriving division that services a Level I trauma center, Nebraska's only Joint Commission Certified Comprehensive Stroke Center and the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center, neuroradiology provides an excellent and comprehensive fellowship experience that prioritizes fellow education and quality of life.

Our fellows spend the majority of their time reading from our primary clinical partner, Nebraska Medicine, a 700-bed academic hospital. We perform approximately 45,000 advanced neuroimaging studies per year. We also cover imaging studies performed at Bellevue Medical Center and three outpatient imaging centers. 

Fellows will rotate through the Children's Nebraska interventional radiology service for head and neck biopsies and spine procedures, and neurosurgery service for neuroangiography. There is flexibility in the schedule to accommodate for individual interests.

Responsibilities

Clinical responsibilities are straightforward, with assignments to the Nebraska Medicine reading room and Children's Nebraska interventional radiology service or neuroangiography service. The majority of time will be spent interpreting studies with graduated responsibility. Hands-on resident teaching is also expected.

Our fellows assist with head and neck and brain tumor boards routinely. They will also provide at least one case conference and one didactic lecture per year to residents.

Fellows are encouraged to submit at least one research or educational abstract to a national meeting and will be supported to attend. They will have the opportunity to participate in additional research projects if desired, and will receive academic time to allow for this activity.
