First weekday of the month, 8:45 AM

Objective: Introduction to the practice of adult diagnostic radiology. Students will have the opportunity to rotate through various subspecialty departments (abdomen, GI/GU, ultrasound, chest, neuroradiology, mammography, musculoskeletal, nuclear medicine, interventional and emergency room radiology).
FULL MORNING PARTICIPATION EXPECTED.
Time in the afternoon is available for studying/reading. Attendance to the radiology 7:30 am and 12:30 daily conferences requested. In addition, a dedicated medical student lecture series is organized to supplement reading room teaching. This is a one month elective. Students should spend 1 week each in abdominal imaging and chest.  The remaining 2 weeks may be chosen from pediatrics, interventional, musculoskeletal and neuroradiology.  
Feedback is given during medical student conferences and at the workstation.
Evaluation is based on student attendance @ conferences, participation during the workday, and final presentation.

Objectives: To provide the student with detailed exposure and training in the field of vascular and interventional radiology.  The student will become an integral part of the clinical evaluation and treatment of inpatients and outpatients treated with the minimally invasive techniques of interventional radiology. 
Learning Experience: They will participate in the work-up of patients, the actual procedures, and patient aftercare.  Students may be offered opportunities for clinical research projects.  The range of diseases treated span peripheral and renovascular disease, venous disease, regional therapy of cancer, biliary disease, gynecologic interventions and uterine fibroid embolization.  Close supervision is provided by the attending staff and fellows.  Section conferences include magnetic resonance and CT angiography conferences, case reviews, and didactic sessions.  This elective may be arranged as a preceptorship with an individual attending staff within the division, as well. 
Feedback: Continuous throughout the elective. 
Evaluation:  At the end of the month, the student will be graded by the course director on the basis of direct preceptorship and evaluation from the attending staff. 
Faculty: The attending staff, fellows, and residents.

Fourth year clinical elective in radiology stressing the multi‑modality approach to current diagnostic imaging.
Objective: Students will be exposed to a program of instructional approach incorporating clinical rotations, reading and conferences.
Learning Experience: Practical experience through the department will include rotations through neuroradiology, emergency radiology, chest, CT, interventional radiology, ultrasound, etc. Students can request to add; mammography and nuclear medicine. The month can be tailored to accommodate any special interest. The students will be encouraged to attend the daily departmental and interdepartmental conferences, am conferences start at 8am.
Feedback: Continuous throughout the elective. 
Evaluation: Will be based on a consensus of all faculty members involved in the student's education in this course.

This elective is designed to introduce the student to minimally invasive catheter-based techniques for diagnosis and therapy for a wide variety of clinical problems. 
Objectives:  The course is tailored to meet the student’s clinical and research interests and may be designed in one, two, three, or six-month contiguous or non-contiguous blocks. 
Learning Experience: The student will participate in all activities of the Section of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, including assisting in procedures such as diagnostic angiography, angioplasty, and embolization.  He/she will participate in work rounds and teaching conferences.  The student will gain an understanding of the indications and in the effectiveness of these procedures, as well as of the technical aspects. In addition, the student may participate in a clinical research project with a faculty member. This project can continue after the elective is completed and if suitable, may be written up and submitted for publication.
Feedback: Continuous on a daily basis. 
Evaluation: Student evaluation will be based on a consensus of all faculty members. Evaluation factors will include attendance, curiosity, enthusiasm, general fund of knowledge, professionalism, organization, problem solving, and interpersonal skills.  The student will be asked to evaluate the clerkship, as well.
