IRAD 709E Dotter Interventional Institute - Advanced Interventional Radiology

Credits: 4
This is an advanced four-week elective for students who have already completed the basic interventional radiology elective and are looking to delve deeper into the patient care and research aspects of the field. Rotation highlights will include time in the Interventional Radiology clinics, attending multidisciplinary case conferences, serving on the inpatient IR consult service, with possible additional time in the translational research lab. This is not a primary procedural based rotation, but rather, focuses on the evaluation of patients before and after their procedures, and on the critical role of clinical decision making. Students are also encouraged to double scrub on patients they have worked up in between consults, as well as at the end of the day for late cases.

Graded: Pass/No pass
May be taken only once for credit
