Medical College of Wisconsin Musculoskeletal Radiology Fellowship

The Medical College of Wisconsin Musculoskeletal Radiology Fellowship offers non ACGME accredited training in both diagnostic imaging and image guided procedures. Fellows rotate at Froedtert Hospital and a nearby MR imaging facility (RAYUS), but also remotely interpret studies for Froedtert Menomonee Falls Hospital, Froedtert West Bend Hospital and many outpatient imaging centers and clinics.

Fellows read MRI, CT, US and radiography with a focus on MRI, biopsies and injections. Cases are balanced, including studies and procedures for an academic orthopedic surgery department featuring three orthopedic oncologists, a level 1 trauma center and the team physicians for the Milwaukee Bucks and Milwaukee Brewers. We also provide imaging and image guided procedures for private practice and academic rheumatologists, sports medicine physicians, plastic surgeons, neurologists, neurosurgeons, physiatrists, podiatrists, general practitioners and private practice orthopedic surgeons.

Our section has 8 radiologists and participates in weekly MSK oncology conferences, weekly rheumatology conferences and twice monthly sports medicine conferences. Our streamlined, integrated EPIC EMR/RIS, McKesson PACS and PowerScribe 360 dictation software allows our trainees to efficiently review many cases. We are a General Electric (GE) beta center with state of the art clinical and research scanners as well as an MRI physicist with a focus on musculoskeletal imaging. Our graduates have continued their careers in both private practice and academics.
