Program Overview
We welcome you to Albany Medical Center Radiology Residency.
The Albany Medical Center Department of Radiology offers a medium-size residency with a collegial, intellectually stimulating and friendly educational environment. You will work closely with radiologists dedicated to mentoring you through the radiology education process.
The Diagnostic Radiology Residency Program at Albany Medical Center is designed to provide a balance of supervised case interpretation, independent learning, didactic lectures, research opportunities, and patient care. All of this is done in the context of the six competencies mandated by the ACGME: patient care, medical knowledge, interpersonal and communication skills, professionalism, practice-based learning and improvement, and systems-based practice. Ultimately, these competencies ensure that we produce radiologists who are knowledgeable and compassionate caregivers.
This program helps residents develop the tools to continue learning and growing throughout their careers while being enthusiastic participants in the health care system. Upon completion of our program, residents will have acquired substantial medical and radiologic knowledge, along with the skills to apply this knowledge to all aspects of the daily practice in radiology.
With the large catchment area provided by the Albany Medical Center, there is a broad case mix from common pathology to rare disease. Residents learn by actively participating, which ultimately makes for a better radiologist. When it comes time to look for an attending or fellowship position, the intimate nature of this residency allows you to obtain personalized insight, guidance, and recommendations from members of our attending staff.
