Pediatric Musculoskeletal Imaging Fellowship
Baylor College of Medicine, through its affiliate Texas Children’s Hospital, offers a one-year fellowship in Pediatric Musculoskeletal Radiology accredited by the Texas Medical Board. With its recent $1.5 billion expansion program completed, Texas Children’s is the largest children’s hospital in the United States. In 2017, over 250 musculoskeletal MRIs per month were performed.
In addition, there is a large outpatient clinic representing all of the subspecialty pediatric services, including orthopedics/sports medicine, oncology and rheumatology; a new community hospital in the suburb of Katy, Texas (Texas Children’s West Campus); and a new women’s hospital (Texas Children’s Pavilion for Women) offering outpatient image-guided procedures.
The fellowship includes rotations in pediatric and adolescent musculoskeletal CT and MRI, plain radiography and image-guided procedures, including joint injection and arthrography. A rotation in adolescent/sports medicine MRI will take place at neighboring Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center, and clinical electives with sports medicine and orthopedics will occur.
Prerequisites:
Candidates must have completed a Diagnostic Radiology Residency in an ACGME-accredited program and a pediatric radiology fellowship and be board certified by the American Board of Radiology. The fellow will be eligible for membership in the Society for Pediatric Radiology.
