The role covers 4:00 pm to 1:00 am Mountain Time on a 7-days-on, 14-days-off rotation. The department has numerous subspecialty sections, including Neuroradiology and Emergency Radiology, with overlapping coverage. Neuroradiology covers 7:00 am to 1:00 am, including this swing shift, and Emergency Radiology covers 10:00 pm to 7:00 am. This position is offered by and housed in the Neuroradiology Section. The radiologist interprets emergent (ED), inpatient and urgent outpatient neuroimaging for UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital, UCHealth Highlands Ranch Hospital, and its affiliated sites, working with radiology residents and neuroradiology fellows. Candidates at any career stage are welcome, from Sr. Instructor through Professor. The position can be exclusively clinical, with no research or promotion expectations. Compensation includes clinical productivity incentives and an annual academic (non-clinical) incentive, with optional extra-duty opportunities. Resources include 1.5T and 3T MRI, dual energy CT, dedicated 3D technologists for CTA/fMRI/DTI, MR guided high frequency ultrasound, intraoperative 3T MRI, research-dedicated scanners (PET-CT, 3T MR, PET-MR), cyclotron and radiopharmaceutical production facility, image analysis laboratory, full spectrum of small animal imaging equipment, and biostatistical support. Mentorship and professional development is strongly supported at the Department and Section level.

Job Information:

• Shift: 4:00 pm to 1:00 am Mountain Time, regardless of the radiologist's home time zone.
