NYU Grossman School of Medicine Program
Interventional radiology - independent - New York, NY | ACGME Code: 4153500005
The Integrated Interventional Radiology Residency at NYU Grossman School of Medicine is a fully accredited, five-year training program that prepares residents to become board-certified in both diagnostic radiology and interventional radiology. The program provides a balanced training in diagnostic radiology subspecialties and robust procedural and clinical training in interventional radiology.
Applicants are required to have completed a one-year, accredited clinical internship. While a preliminary year in general surgery is preferred, the program also accepts interns from various other specialties such as internal medicine, surgical specialties, pediatrics, and others.
During the first three years of the program, residents receive training similar to those in the Diagnostic Radiology Residency, while the final two years focus on interventional radiology. Rotations are organized based on competency goals and objectives in interventional radiology, including procedure-based rotations at various hospitals and outpatient centers. Residents also engage in clinical research and quality improvement initiatives.
The program includes a comprehensive two-year curriculum with weekly interventional radiology case lectures, case conferences, and journal clubs. Residents have the opportunity to participate in multidisciplinary conferences and present at interventional radiology morbidity and mortality conferences. Attending major interventional radiology conferences is encouraged.
For further information about the program, interested individuals can contact the program manager, Nati Mejias, at [email protected].
