Radiology Residency Program
Diagnostic imaging services include radiology, ultrasound, computed tomography, nuclear medicine, and magnetic resonance imaging. Diagnostic imaging enables veterinarians to get a look at what is happening inside an animal using noninvasive techniques.
The Department of Environmental and Radiological Health Sciences offers a post-DVM combined Residency/Masters program in Diagnostic Imaging, with the objective of meeting the eligibility requirements of the American College of Veterinary Radiology to sit for the certifying board examination. The program offers clinical training in all aspects of diagnostic imaging under the guidance of four board certified faculty radiologists, and two additional board certified clinical staff radiologists.
The residency program requires 3 years (36 months) of training in veterinary diagnostic imaging of which at least 30 months is supervised clinical experience. Typically, there are two to three residents being trained who have started their programs one year apart. Dr. Richard Park directs the Residency program. Application materials and inquiries should be sent to his attention at the address below.
The radiology faculty has imaging expertise which encompasses large and small animal radiology, ultrasound, nuclear medicine, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Radiology equipment is designed for examination of both large and small animal patients. Computed radiography, along with other forms of digital imaging, allows for improved diagnostic capabilities. Equipment with color-flow Doppler capability is used for ultrasound evaluation.
At the James L. Voss Veterinary Teaching Hospital, our skilled personnel and advanced equipment contribute to the diagnostic imaging service's reputation as one of the best of its kind in the United States.
