Abdominal Imaging Fellowship

Now accepting applications for fellowship starting July 1, 2024

Positions for the 1 year abdominal imaging fellowship starting July 2023 are still available.

The University of Pittsburgh Department of Radiology is one of the nation’s largest and most productive academic radiology departments with approximately 150 clinical faculty performing nearly 2 million procedures annually. Since it was established in 1992, the abdominal imaging fellowship at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) is a 1 year, non ACGME program designed to train radiologists in all aspects of abdominal imaging to acquire the skills, knowledge, and expertise necessary to multimodality image interpretation and performing interventional procedures.

The fellows rotate all year in week-long blocks primarily at our main teaching campus, Presbyterian Hospital, an 800-bed facility, in ultrasound, CT-MRI, abdominal interventional service, and at Shadyside hospital, a 520-bed tertiary care hospital which comprises all of the above modalities with an emphasis on oncologic, genitourinary, and digestive disorders. Fellows will also spend time at the nearby Magee Women’s Hospital focusing on benign and malignant gynecological imaging including female pelvic MRI, receive approximately 4 weeks of academic or elective time and occasionally rotate at the outpatient center, South Hills Imaging in Bethel Park, PA. Five fellows are accepted into the program every year. Fellows completing the program will be well positioned for either a private practice or an academic career.
