The last two years of the residency focus on interventional radiology, including the clinical care of IR patients and the performance of image-guided procedures. Residents participate in the entire gamut of modern interventional radiology care, emphasizing pre- and post-procedure management and clinical patient evaluations. Participation in ongoing research projects, publications, and submission to regional and national meetings is highly encouraged and supported.
