Research

Residents are encouraged to participate in clinical and basic science projects as a component of a comprehensive education. Residents within the Department of Imaging Sciences have been recognized nationally for innovative research. Many give formal presentations at major national radiologic meetings and publish their work in peer-reviewed journals. 

We now offer a master’s degree in medical imaging and strongly support resident participation in the ABR Holman Research Pathway.

Dr. Olsen traveled to Zambia in January of 2018 and participated in the ongoing research activities at Lusaka APEX Medical University.

2018 AUR Radiology Resident Academic Leadership Development Program (ARRALD) award – Hall MF.

The AUR Radiology Resident Academic Leadership Development (ARRALD) Program provides focused mentorship, leadership, and academic development activities to a group of high-potential second-year (PGY-3) radiology residents in order to better prepare for their transition into successful careers as leaders in academic radiology. The program combines existing AUR sessions with specific program content in order to provide a curriculum that will enable the participating resident to hone his or her skills in leadership, teaching, and other tasks that will be of ongoing value in career development whether he or she end up in academics, or as a leader in private practice or industry.
