Rush University Medical Center

Rush University is offering an ACGME approved one year dedicated musculoskeletal imaging fellowship position starting July1, 2022.  Rush is located in the heart of the Illinois Medical District, just west of downtown Chicago.  The medical center is in a growth mode with current construction of a new outpatient facility that will house a new outpatient imaging center, cancer center and neurology clinic.  The majority of the fellowship will be spent in the Midwest Orthopedics building, a state of the art facility.  The musculoskeletal radiology section reads and manages six MRI scanners and a CT for Midwest Orthopedics as well as multiple MRI and CT scanners at Rush.

Rush University provides imaging and procedural services for Midwest Orthopedics, one of the top orthopedic groups in the country.  The fellow will have daily access to a wide variety of musculoskeletal imaging ranging from sports medicine to bone tumor and sarcoma evaluation.  We perform all imaging for the Chicago Bulls, Chicago White Sox, Chicago Fire, Joffrey Ballet Academy and multiple local collegiate sports programs.  

We also interpret imaging for the medical center which provides a wide range of musculoskeletal imaging including rheumatology.  The fellow will participate in multiple interdisciplinary conferences including weekly sarcoma conference, rheumatology conference and orthopedic sports medicine conferences.  Dedicated time will be provided for a research project and to spend time with interventional radiology and neuroradiology sections for spine imaging and procedural exposure.  All of our radiologists are actively involved in research projects with the Midwest Orthopedics department.

The musculoskeletal department consists of four dedicated board certified fellowship trained musculoskeletal radiologists.  The department is a very collegial group that values teaching, research and professional development.  We are excited to offer this unique opportunity and are accepting applications for the 2021 academic year.  The position requires graduation from an ACGME approved radiology residency program.

Please submit your common musculoskeletal fellowship application with three letters of recommendation to Tisa Williams to schedule an interview.
