Overview
The Diagnostic Radiology Residency Program at Aurora St. Luke’s Medical Center is a rigorous, five-year postgraduate medical training program designed to prepare physicians for board-certified careers in diagnostic imaging. Accredited by the ACGME and recognized by national radiology boards, the curriculum combines one year of foundational clinical training with four years of in-depth radiology education. Residents participate in rotations covering all major imaging modalities — including neuroradiology, body imaging, thoracic imaging, ultrasound, nuclear medicine, cardiovascular imaging, musculoskeletal imaging, women’s imaging, interventional radiology, and pediatric radiology — with structured exposure to both common and complex diagnostic scenarios. The program emphasizes clinical competence, interpretative excellence, research engagement, and preparation for board certification. Didactic conferences, case reviews, multidisciplinary tumor boards, and simulation experiences supplement clinical rotations. Residents gain experience with state-of-the-art imaging equipment and technologies, and the program supports elective time for residents to pursue individualized academic interests. Graduates are trained for careers in private practice, academic radiology, and advanced fellowship subspecialties.
