Fellows interpret a broad range of cross sectional imaging studies and perform a wide variety of imaging guided invasive procedures. Clinical research opportunities are available but not required. Fellows are post-doctoral associates rather than occupying ACGME positions, and therefore there are opportunities for internal moonlighting to maintain general radiology skills. Responsibilities include independent radiograph interpretation and after hours resident supervision, but there is additional compensation for these duties. Candidates must have an MD or DO degree (the employer accepts foreign educational equivalent) and obtain a Florida medical license prior to employment.
