Job Title: Open Rank, Open Track- Sr. Instructor, Assistant, Associate, Professor - MSK

Position #00825957 - Requisition #39972

Job Summary

The Department of Radiology at University of Colorado Anschutz is seeking applicants for a full-time radiologist and faculty member in the Musculoskeletal Radiology Section. We are interested in candidates at any stage of their career from the Sr. Instructor, Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor levels.

The Department of Radiology offers two career pathways.

Clinical Practice Track:

• Exclusive focus on clinical work with no research expectations.
• Productivity-based compensation plan.

Academic/Tenure Eligible Track:

• Focus on clinical, teaching, and research missions.
• Academic faculty are incentive eligible.

The department has an excellent track record of obtaining J1 waivers, and candidates are encouraged to apply.

Key Responsibilities

• Diagnostic responsibilities include subspecialty interpretation of MSK, MRI, CT, ultrasound, and radiographs. Spine imaging interpretation is shared between the neuroradiology and MSK sections. Our team reads cases referred by Orthopedic Surgery, PM&R and Sports Medicine. Weekend call duties are shared by all section members and consist of MSK specialty-specific coverage.
• Experience in standard interventional MSK procedures such as CT-guided and ultrasound-guided biopsy, spine injection, and joint injection/aspiration is necessary, although we are happy to work with new colleagues to adapt their existing skills to our practice. A subset of attendings perform advanced interventions including kyphoplasty and tumor ablation, and opportunities in this area are available, though skills in this area are not required.
• As a member of the Department of Radiology covering multiple sites, the successful recruit will be required to participate in all aspects of our clinical practice.
• Participation and collaboration through interdisciplinary conferences is ongoing.
• Participation in fellow, and resident education is expected.
• Being one of the primary radiologists at our hospital, regular interaction with referring providers within our highly collaborative setting is a standard expectation of the role.

Work location will be determined during the interview process based on the candidate's preference.
