Program Overview:
Our Musculoskeletal (MSK) Radiology Fellowship provides a comprehensive and specialized training experience in the latest diagnostic imaging techniques and treatments. Fellows will gain experience covering both routine and complex musculoskeletal disorders, including athletic injuries and performance-related pathologies.
Imaging Modalities
Fellows will receive in depth training involving the imaging modalities used to assess a wide variety of musculoskeletal related conditions
- MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging): In-depth training in musculoskeletal MRI, including joint, soft tissue, bone, and cartilage imaging.
- CT (Computed Tomography): Advanced applications of CT for assessing bony structures, fractures, and complex anatomy.
- Ultrasound: Expertise in musculoskeletal ultrasound for both diagnostic imaging and image-guided procedures (e.g., injections, aspirations).
- Radiography: Advanced interpretation of musculoskeletal X-rays, including fracture patterns and degenerative conditions.
Clinical Training
Fellows will learn to address conditions in areas of the extremities, joints, pelvis, mandible, musculature system and conditions such as TMJ, sacroiliac joint dysfunction and inflammatory disease.
MSK performs fluoro /ultrasound guided procedures such as MR and CT arthrograms. Other procedures include Diagnostic joint/bursa/tenosynovial sheath aspirations for infection/inflammatory etiologies as well as Therapeutic joint/bursa/tenosynovial sheath injections used for pain relief and as a bridge to joint replacement.
Multidisciplinary Collaboration
Fellows involved with the Division of Musculoskeletal Radiology are a valuable part of the team. We work together to support the University of Arizona Athletic Association. Working closely with the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, our team reads all professional and U of A studies they cover. We also collaborate with Banner-University Medicine Tucson orthopedic surgeons and outside orthopedic surgeons, as well as the University of Arizona sports medicine physicians.
Research and Academic Development
There are outstanding research opportunities involving an on-site Research MRI. Fellows are also exposed to a large number of interdisciplinary conferences. Learn more about research opportunities in the Department of Radiology and Imaging Sciences.
Special Strengths
- High volumes of MRI and CT studies and sports medicine cases
- Training in Level I Trauma Center
- Collaborations with the Departments of Orthopaedic Surgery, Podiatry, Rheumatology and Oncology
- Expert training in musculoskeletal ultrasonography and ultrasound-guided procedures
