Daily structure
A typical day in the Diagnostic Radiology Residency program begins at 8 am and finishes by 5 pm. You will be expected to preview all cases to ensure you get maximum benefit during your readout sessions with the attendings. These readout sessions will provide opportunities for you to receive one-on-one instruction and feedback on your interpretations. The rotations are designed to provide you with greater autonomy and patient care responsibilities as you progress through your training. The gradual increase in responsibility will allow you the opportunity to gain confidence as a radiologist and serve as a productive team member and consultant for our referring physicians.
Call system
Our call system is intended to aid in your growth as a radiology resident. The purpose of this call at our institution is to expose you to an environment where making accurate diagnoses while balancing service needs in a timely manner will become a workflow with which you will begin to feel comfortable.
Call coverage responsibilities will be scheduled appropriately according to your training level, graduating from basic to more complex modality coverage over the course of four years. During the first two years of your residency, you will be taking daytime weekend call (8-2pm) on average of q6. No weekday evening or overnight coverage will be expected during these years.
During the third and fourth year you will participate in middlehawk evening (1-9pm/2-10pm) and nighthawk overnight (10pm-7am) weeklong shifts extending into weekends. These will take place in lieu of your traditional daytime rotations and will also occur on average of q6. Nighthawk call will be from Friday-Thursday night to afford you a golden weekend and ensure adequate time for rest and recovery before your next rotation begins.
Research and Scholarly Activity
Scholarly research is an essential component of our residency program. A lifelong passion for research and scholarly activity is an important skill to cultivate, especially in an ever-changing, technologically-driven field like radiology. The St. Luke’s Graduate Medical Education and Department of Research and Innovation provide a structured research curriculum and comprehensive support for research projects for radiology residents. The support spans the entire research process, from project conception and feasibility assessment to study design, data collection, statistical analysis, and interpretation of results. In addition, the program assists with securing funding for regional and national conference presentations, as well as manuscript preparation, submission, and publication-related fees.
St. Luke's is proud to be designated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the federal Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) as the #1 health system in the nation for quality, safety, and patient experience. As such, each resident participates in a Quality Improvement/Patient Safety Related Project during their residency.
Our residents have had poster and oral presentations accepted for regional and national conferences including:
- American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS)
- American Society of Neuroradiology (ASNR)
- American Society of Emergency Radiology (ASER)
- Association of Academic Radiology (AAR)
- Radiological Society of North America (RSNA)
- Society of Abdominal Radiology (SAR)
