Purpose

The purpose of this study was to gauge radiology trainee perceptions regarding the fellowship selection process and survey their perceived level of preparedness and desire for a fellowship-oriented lecture.

Methods

A survey, approved by Association of Program Coordinators in Radiology (APCR) was distributed via e-mail to all APCR members for distribution to their residents.

Results

A total of 98.6% (n = 261) of residents plan to pursue a fellowship. The most popular fellowships are interventional radiology, body, musculoskeletal, and Neuro. For fellowship information, residents believe that fellowship directors in their field of intent were the most reliable (76%), followed by fellows (65%). Only approximately 50% of residents felt somewhat strongly that they were preparing for their fellowship application correctly. Lastly, 44% of residents (n = 94) replied extremely likely to attend a lecture series given by fellowship directors, and 36% (n = 77) said somewhat likely.

Conclusion

This survey demonstrates that most trainees plan to pursue fellowship training. Residents ranked certain resources as more important in fellowship selection, such as fellowship directors and fellows. Lastly, there is a high interest in a lecture series that would bring together fellowship directors and residents that are interested in that particular fellowship.  相似文献

Radiolabeling techniques for white cells, platelets, and erythrocytes are reviewed. The early studies using diisopropylfluoro-32P contributed to an understanding of the production and circulation of the blood elements, and 51Cr proved useful in localizing sites of cell migration or destruction. 111In-oxine has further improved the understanding of blood cell organ sequestration, and permitted combined kinetic and organ imaging studies. Radionuclide labels have been essential for the elucidation of various hematologic disorders, such as the neutropenias, thrombocytopenias, anemias, and polycythemia. Many new treatments, including monoclonal antibodies, have been evaluated with radionuclides.  相似文献

ObjectivesTo assess and raise medical student interest in interventional radiology (IR); and to evaluate student response across gender, level of training, and surgical vs nonsurgical specialty interest.Materials and MethodsAll Ohio medical students were invited to an IR Symposium held by a large academic medical center in central Ohio. The program encompassed didactic lectures, hands-on simulation models, and a networking luncheon with faculty, trainees, and industry partners. All attendees completed an anonymous, 5-point Likert scaled survey preattending and postattending the event to assess their awareness of IR as a specialty, understanding of the current training pathways, and level of interest.ResultsA total of 46 participants (M:F 60%:40%, MS1—53%, MS2—36%, and MS3—11%) attended the symposium. The cohort demonstrated increased interest in pursuing a career in IR following the symposium (4.12 vs 3.70, P < 0.001). Students with an interest in a nonsurgical specialty showed an increased interest in IR (4.20 vs 3.68, P < 0.001), whereas surgically oriented students did not demonstrate a significant increase (4.00 vs 3.71, P = 0.375). No statistically significant differences were noted across gender or level of training. The symposium experience significantly increased understanding of the IR training pathways (4.51 vs 2.94, P < 0.001). Students rated lectures (57%) and endovascular simulators (41%) as the most useful experiences.ConclusionsThis study demonstrated the role of symposia in improving medical student awareness of IR and training pathways. Findings were validated across gender and training level, and identified the subset of students with nonsurgical interests as most responsive to such intervention and potential recruitment.  相似文献

Purpose

Radiology fellowship training has evolved from being an uncommon option to being a near requisite for post-training employment in the United States. A subset of fellows elect to pursue second fellowships with potentially substantial implications on both the private sector and academic radiology workforce. The purpose of this study was to assess the proportion of current radiology fellows pursuing multiple years of post-residency fellowship training.

Materials and Methods

After obtaining IRB approval, an anonymous web-based survey was emailed to 1,269 radiology fellows listed as “completing fellowship” in the American College of Radiology database in June 2014. Questions were asked regarding current fellowship training, post-fellowship employment plans, and individual experience pursuing employment. Results were analyzed using the survey analytical software.

Results

There were 219 responses received, representing a 17.3% response rate. Ten-percent of respondents were currently completing their second radiology fellowship. Of those completing their first year of fellowship training, 11% indicated plans to complete a second radiology fellowship.

Conclusion

This survey provides a snapshot of the percentage of radiology trainees who pursue a second year of fellowship training, currently in the range of 10%. Pursuing a second radiology fellowship may represent a safety net to a substantial subset of fellows who are not able to obtain satisfactory employment following training. Academic programs who rely heavily on fellows should be aware of the proportion of fellows pursuing two fellowships and should be prepared to adapt should this change over time.  相似文献
