The fellows enjoy a robust conference schedule to round out their education. Protected time is given for daily radiology conferences. Our radiology attending staff regularly attend (virtually and/or in-person) and participate in every conference. Oftentimes, there are more than 10 radiology attendings at conference, with each adding his or her perspective on the presented topic. Conferences last at least one hour.

Weekly Radiology Conferences:

  • Mondays: Fellow/Attending Presentation – general topics in musculoskeletal imaging with the fellow presenting for the first 20-30 minutes, followed by a radiology attending presenting complementary cases on the topic for 30-40 minutes
  • Every other Monday morning: hands-on Ultrasound Tutorial with ultrasound attendings present
  • Tuesdays: MRI Conference – given by department radiologists covering all joints
  • Wednesdays: Grand Rounds – typically given by an attending from another service (orthopedics – sports/arthroplasty/hand/foot/pediatrics/etc., rheumatology, pathology)
  • Thursday noon conference: Teaching File Conference – case conference; lunch provided
  • Every other Thursday afternoon: Ultrasound Lecture – given by an ultrasound attending
  • Friday conference: Interesting Cases Conference – a selection of interesting cases from the week are discussed
