TYPICAL ROTATIONS
|
| Residents assume clinical responsibility based on their
year of residency and their level of competence. The type of
responsibility is individualized by faculty members from their
one-on-one experience with the resident. The resident is regularly
informed about his or her individual progress with periodic
written evaluations.
Active resident participation in performing procedures and
reporting cases is emphasized throughout the four-year program.
Our typical resident has more than ample experience in performing
fluoroscopic procedures (GI and GU), vascular angiography, and
more invasive procedures such as guided biopsy, abscess drainage,
and other interventional procedures.
Loyola has a three-tier evening/weekend departmental coverage system.
With recent ACGME core requirement changes, first year residents do not
participate in call as of July 2008. First year residents will
participate in a weekend call in conjunction with a senior resident from
January to June. Second year residents share an ER Radiology
Night Float Rotation and call. Third and fourth year residents rotate
through a Specialized Imaging Night Float rotation and call. Faculty members provide
in house and back-up
coverage in all of the various areas including teleradiology
coverage for CT, US, and MRI cases.
