Educational Goals

Upon completion of the fellowship, the fellow will independently plan and safely execute basic and advanced diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The fellow will be sensitive to pain management and independently anticipate and manage potential post-procedural complications. Ideally, the fellow will begin to develop novel diagnostic or therapeutic procedures and techniques.
The fellow will function at a high clinical level in terms of productivity and knowledge level with respect to musculoskeletal imaging. The fellow should know basic biomechanics and injury mechanisms for musculoskeletal trauma. The fellow should recognize detailed anatomy on cross- sectional imaging. The fellow should provide feedback to technical staff members regarding image acquisition in complex cases.
The fellow should serve as a teacher and mentor for junior learners. The fellow should be able to teach residents to identify subtle findings and develop an approach to image analysis across multiple musculoskeletal imaging modalities. The fellow should know basic bone physiology and recognize drug- and treatment-induced changes in bone. The fellow should demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of orthopedic procedures and their radiographic, CT, US, or MR
appearance. The fellow will be well equipped to pursue a career in academic medicine. During the fellowship, the fellow will present at a national or international meeting. This presentation will provide the fellow with an opportunity to advance the knowledge of musculoskeletal conditions through a research project and/or an opportunity to teach peers at a national level through an educational exhibit.
In summary, the goals of the Wake Forest Musculoskeletal Imaging Fellowship are to produce well- trained radiologists, who have the foundation and training to become leaders in our field.
