The Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) Department of Diagnostic Radiology is seeking a well-trained, subspecialized radiologist to join an MSK imaging team dedicated to outstanding patient care, resident and fellow teaching, and academic excellence. The current practice consists of six core MSK faculty members (all Society of Skeletal Radiology members and one International Skeletal Society member) and two MSK fellows per year.
The position is 100% MSK subspecialized and hybrid in nature with work-from-home flexibility. Clinical responsibilities include general MSK radiographs, MRI and CT (including sports, oncology, rheumatology), diagnostic MSK ultrasound, and attendance at interdisciplinary conferences. The section also performs a high volume of fluoroscopy, CT and US-guided procedures, including spine and extremity biopsies, osteoid osteoma radiofrequency ablations, and joint injections. All faculty members are provided with a home workstation. Approximately 50% of the clinical work as well as on-call duties are undertaken from home while the remainder of the work is performed at OHSU’s main hospital. There is no overnight call. All faculty members are provided with at least one academic day per week with additional time available as dictated by varying department roles/responsibilities. For interested faculty members, additional moonlighting opportunities are also available.
As the only academic medical center in the state of Oregon, OHSU provides a full spectrum of care to a large and diverse population, including an active transplant program and the Knight Cancer Institute. Accordingly, the department has state of the art imaging equipment and sees patients with a wide mix of complexity and pathology. Academic activities within the section are centered on the promotion of excellence in the evidence-based application, performance, and interpretation of MSK Imaging. The campus offers excellent opportunities for multidisciplinary research, with a history of innovative and collaborative studies. OHSU is home to numerous specialized research centers and institutes, including one of the first Clinical and Translational Sciences Award-funded programs in the country (the Oregon Clinical and Translational Research Institute), the Advanced Imaging Research Center (dedicated to improving medical imaging), the Knight Cancer Institute, the Dotter Interventional Institute, the Center for Spatial Systems Biomedicine (dedicated to elucidating the structural and mechanical properties of cells and tissues), and the Oregon National Primate Research Center. The Knight Cancer Institute is the only NCI-designated Cancer Center in Oregon. Educational responsibilities will include teaching at all levels commensurate with a large academic center, including medical student, resident, fellow and postgraduate training.
