About the Pediatric Radiology Fellowship
The Emory/Children's Pediatric Radiology Fellowship program features comprehensive training in all aspects of pediatric radiology in one of the largest pediatric healthcare centers in the U.S. The goal is prepare fellows for serving children in their communities and to support achievement of the fellows' career goals, whether in academic medicine or in private practice. The program is one of the only pediatric programs in the country to receive the Diagnostic Imaging Center of Excellence (DICOE) designation from the American College of Radiology.
Fellows work under the supervision of a large board-certified pediatric radiology team in neuroradiology, interventional radiology, musculoskeletal radiology, cardiac imaging, nuclear medicine/PET, and fetal imaging. Fellows train in all aspects of pediatric imaging including fluoroscopy, ultrasound (including contrast-enhanced ultrasound), pediatric body MRI and CT, cardiac CT, musculoskeletal imaging/interventions, neuroradiology, nuclear medicine (including PET, MIBG therapy and thyroid ablation), and fetal MRI. Our team of imaging technologists, medical imaging nurses, sedation specialists, child-life experts, and physicists are valuable partners in providing safe imaging examinations of the highest quality.
The program is one of three pediatric imaging fellowships offered by Emory Radiology's Division of Pediatric Imaging in partnership with Children's Healthcare of Atlanta.
Fellows also benefit from the vast resources of Emory Radiology and the Emory School of Medicine GME.
