Didactic Training
Clinical conferences, formal courses, seminars, small discussion
groups, journal clubs and one-on-one instruction are all an integral
part of the residency.
Research Training
All of Mayo's diagnostic radiology residents are required to present
a seminar project during the second year of their residency. Two
additional options are available if you would like more in-depth
research experience:
Evaluation
To ensure that you acquire adequate knowledge and develop your technical
skills, your performance will be monitored carefully during the
course of your residency. You will be evaluated formally by your
supervising faculty member after each clinical rotation. In addition,
you will regularly evaluate the faculty to ensure that your educational
needs are being met.
Call Frequency
Your call schedule will vary by individual rotation. Mayo Clinic
follows the recommendations of the Accreditation Council for Graduate
Medical Education (ACGME).
Teaching Opportunities
You will have the opportunity to teach Mayo Medical School students
and visiting students from other medical schools through daily clinical
work and formal didactic lectures.
