Neuroradiology Fellowship

The Emory Neuroradiology Fellowship program emphasizes excellence in training with cutting edge technology, innovative experience in our embedded clinic model, and a high volume of diverse pathology. Our Neuroradiology Fellowship Program trains nine ACGME-accredited diagnostic neuroradiology fellows per year, with the option of a second year of fellowship. A series of well-designed rotations provides tremendous hands-on experience in all aspects of diagnostic neuroradiology including advanced MRI applications, head and neck imaging, pediatric neuroradiology, spine imaging, neuroangiography, and image-guided procedures. Our multiple hospitals and embedded reading rooms within various clinics (ENT, Neurosurgery and Neuroradiology) allow fellows to gain a unique exposure to referring clinicians, clinical context and patient management. 

In addition to providing clinical training at the highest level, our fellowship also focuses on our people, wellness, diversity and inclusion. Faculty/trainee lunches, post-call compensation days, and a pre-call compensation day before weekend call are just some of the dedicated wellness efforts that fellows enjoy. Our fellowship benefits from Emory University School of Medicine’s substantial physical resources, collaborative and collegial work environment, high-quality teaching programs, ethos of innovation and discovery, and a shared commitment to excellence. 

Our fellowship’s greatest asset is its diverse team of outstanding faculty, each with a unique area of expertise. 

The Division of Neuroradiology's faculty members are exceptionally energetic, knowledgeable, and experienced, as this is one of the largest and most successful neuroradiology fellowships in the US. The pass rate for sub specialization testing (previously termed Certificate of Added Qualification) is 100%. Previous fellows universally describe the year as educational, exciting, and enjoyable. Above all else, Emory Neuroradiology is a family. 

The Emory Neuroradiology division is comprised of nationally and internationally recognized experts representing all of the neuroradiology sub-specialties, with faculty focusing their clinical and research efforts on CNS tumors, stroke and other vascular disorders, spine disease, head and neck disease, trauma, epilepsy, and neurodegenerative diseases, among others. Our Interventional Neuroradiology service treats a wide-range of disorders including acute strokes, vascular malformations, and aneurysms. We also are fortunate to have a group of dedicated pediatric neuroradiologists. Emory Neuroradiology is one of the largest sections in the United States and includes leaders in the field, including past presidents of ASNR, SCARD, ARRS, and AUR. Many of our division faculty have research funding from institution, foundation, industry and NIH grants.

We provide neuroradiology services for the 579-bed tertiary care Emory University Hospital (EUH), the 531-bed tertiary care Emory University Hospital Midtown (EUHM), the 120-bed specialty Emory University Orthopedics and Spine Hospital (EUOSH), the 953-bed Level I Trauma Center and Stroke Center at Grady Memorial Hospital (GMH), the 250-bed dedicated Children's Hospital of Atlanta (CHOA) at Egleston, and the 319-bed CHOA at Scottish Rite. We also provide services for many outpatient clinics including the Emory Brain Health Center, an outpatient neuroscience center that houses neurology, rehabilitation, and psychiatry clinics. We enjoy a long-standing culture of collaboration with imaging scientists in our department as well as referring clinicians in neurology, neurosurgery, otolaryngology, ophthalmology, radiation oncology and hematology-oncology.

Emory Radiology is an internationally recognized leader in pioneering novel imaging techniques and technologies to diagnose and treat a wide range of health issues. Eleven clinical divisions provide diagnostic and therapeutic imaging to Emory Healthcare, Grady, Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and the VA Healthcare System.

Emory is the largest academic health care center in Georgia and the only integrated academic health care system in the region leveraging the power of research to advance the quality of patient care. As one of the largest departments in the country, we are at the forefront of training a new generation of imaging clinicians and researchers.

Clinical imaging equipment includes numerous state-of-the-art scanners for ultrasound, multi-detector and dual-source CT, and MRI (1.5-T and 3.0-T), PET-CT, fluoroscopy, biplane neuroradiological angiographic suites, a newly installed PET- MRI, and a dedicated interventional MRI suite.
