Fellowship in Abdominal Imaging
Advanced training in imaging of abdominal organs using ultrasound, Doppler, CT, and MRI with focus on oncologic.
Course Overview
The Fellowship in Abdominal Imaging is a focused postgraduate subspecialty training program designed to develop expertise in imaging of the abdominal organs, including the liver, pancreas, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, adrenal glands, and retroperitoneum. The fellowship emphasizes multimodality imaging using ultrasound, Doppler, CT, and MRI, with strong focus on protocol optimization, accurate diagnosis, oncologic imaging, and clinical correlation. The program prepares radiologists for independent subspecialty practice in abdominal imaging.
