Cardiothoracic Imaging Fellowship-UW
University of Washington
UW Radiology Cardiothoracic Imaging Fellowship is a comprehensive cardiothoracic radiology fellowship program which includes hands-on training in cardiac and thoracic radiographs, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance. Our program is conducted by world-renowned specialist in the field of cardiothoracic imaging:
Dr. Matthew Cham
Dr. Karen Ordovas
Dr. Gautham Reddy
Dr. David Godwin
Dr. Eric Stern
Dr. Sudhakar Pipavath
Prerequisite Training/Selection Criteria: Prerequisite training requirements are completion of an ACGME-accredited radiology residency program in the United States or an RCPSC-accredited program in Canada (or the equivalent radiology residency in another country ,along with ECFMG certification).Preference is given to those candidates who are ABR certified or eligible, and only exceptional FMG candidates are considered. Applicants are chosen on the basis of clinical performance ,knowledge of radiology, and professionalism demonstrated during radiology residency, as well as interest in cardiothoracic radiology.
Goals and Objectives for Training: The educational purpose of the program is to train radiologists in the subspecialties of cardiac and thoracic/pulmonary imaging for practice in academic and community settings. The goals are to provide advanced training in radiography, CT, and MRI as they apply to cardiothoracic imaging. The experiences include formal teaching in radiography, CT, and MRI, faculty-directed and self-directed study, and participation in multidisciplinary conferences.
Facilities: Training is conducted at the University of Washington Medical Center and at Harborview Medical Center. We utilize state of the art imaging equipment from multiple vendors including the latest generation dual source and 512-slice (256-detector row) CT scanners, as well as 1.5 and 3T MRI scanners. We also have a 3D Laboratory which provides efficient post-processing of complex imaging data.

4-Year Alternate Pathway Fellowship in Radiology ( up to 2 years in cardiothoracic imaging)
University of Washington
Our four-year alternate pathway was created to provide international medical graduates (IMGs) an opportunity to complete four years of radiology training and then become eligible to sit for the American Board of Radiology (ABR) board certification examinations. The details of the IMG Alternate Pathway for Board Eligibility can be found on the ABR website at: www.theabr.org Please note that the four years of training have to be completed at one single institution and without interruption.
At the University of Washington, the required four years of training can be accomplished through a combination of years of education in the following training programs: Abdominal Radiology, Cardiothoracic Radiology, Emergency Radiology, Musculoskeletal Radiology, Neuroradiology, Nuclear Medicine and Pediatric Radiology.
Nuclear Medicine (NM) is a required component to complete the pathway so all inquiries are routed through this sub-specialty for approval. If NM does not accept the applicant, then the 4-year pathway is no longer available.
You may express preferences for the combination of years of radiology training you would favor and we will attempt to offer a four-year pathway that meets this as much as possible. However, our training positions are limited and you may be offered a four-year pathway different from your initial request. If you agree with the the pathway suggested, you will be offered an interview in Seattle. In person interviews are important for us to determine your strengths and eligibility and for you to discover our programs, UW and Seattle.

University of Pennsylvania Cardiovascular and Cardiothoracic Imaging Fellowships
University of Pennsylvania
We have one position available for July 2022 and two for 2023. Equipment includes third-generation dual source and wide detector CT. An inpatient tower opening in October has photon counting CT. Research opportunities are available with 1.5T, 3T and 7T MR systems, physics and quantitative image analysis laboratories.
The Cardiovascular Imaging fellowship provides training for an academic career, including rotations in cardiology and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, with dedicated academic time (up to 40%).
The CVI section has 13 level 3 trained faculty (8 radiologists, 5 cardiologists). Typical daily exam volume is 15 CMR, 35 CCT, and 40 CTA/MRA. Penn has a large structural heart disease program; the section interprets TAVR/TMVR CT. Other interests include: MR with implanted devices – the Penn program has scanned over 5000 patients, EP, cardiomyopathy, CVI informatics, and comparative effectiveness.
Previous Penn fellows hold leadership positions in academic institutions and societies, including NASCI.
The Cardiothoracic Imaging fellowship includes 9 months chest and 3 months cardiovascular. Fellows participate in the biopsy service and dedicated academic time is included.
The Thoracic Imaging section has 18 faculty, all with chest fellowship training. Areas of interest include lung transplant imaging, radiomics of lung cancer, obstructive pulmonary disease, and COVID-19 associated pneumonia, imaging of mediastinal tumors, and the effects of racial and economic disparities on access to and decision making in radiology.
Both fellowships are NOT ACGME-accredited; applicants must obtain an unrestricted medical license in Pennsylvania. This requires ECFMG certification and completion of at least two years of ACGME accredited training. We support J-1 visas for one year fellowships.
