Description
Mayo Clinic’s four-year Diagnostic Radiology Residency in Rochester, Minnesota, prepares physicians for academic radiology or private practice, particularly those interested in education and research. Residents train in a department that has performed more than one million radiology examinations annually since 2004, encountering a broad range of pathologies and working with staff radiologists across all diagnostic radiology subspecialties.
The program combines clinical rotations, procedures and image interpretation with didactic and research training. Its goal is to develop competence in autonomous diagnostic imaging practice, education and research while providing multidisciplinary, patient-centered care. Residents choose a research mentor in their first year and present a research seminar project in their second.
