University of Missouri-Columbia
Non-Accredited Musculoskeletal Radiology Fellowship Program
Opening starting July 2026
The Musculoskeletal Imaging Fellowship is a one-year non-ACGME accredited training program. The University of Missouri accepts one fellow per year.
About the Fellowship:
The musculoskeletal imaging fellow will achieve proficiency in conventional radiographs, diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound, CT and MRI, and image-guided procedures. A wide variety of interventional musculoskeletal procedures of both the axial and appendicular skeletons are performed, including epidural and transforaminal spine injections, biopsies, arthrograms, peripheral nerve blocks, and diagnostic and therapeutic joint and tendon sheath injections under ultrasound and fluoroscopy.
Fellows will interpret all modalities on a daily basis, participate in the division’s daily resident teaching sessions, and the division’s combination of case and didactic lectures. Fellowship-trained MSK radiologists provide one-on-one supervision and teaching. Fellows are expected to participate in the regular interdisciplinary conferences which are held with the orthopedic oncology, spine, and sports medicine services. Fellows participate in call as determined by the department. Dedicated research time is available for those who would like to do an academic project during their fellowship year.
