Human Imaging

From Radiological Sciences

Human Imaging Curriculum Ph.D. Plan

Image:HumanImagingBanner.jpg

A combined MD Residency/PhD program is offered through Radiological Sciences. Physicians may complete their residency in radiology, psychiatry or radiation oncology concomitant with completing requirements for a PhD degree in Radiation Biology that includes a training track in Human Imaging. Students in this program study and perform research within dedicated groups of medical physicists, biomedical imaging specialists and biomedical researchers from specialties using imaging as a research tool. The recommended curriculum for this program is given below. (Note: Human imaging students may request the Radiological Sciences COGS to grant waivers of specific courses in the first year based on previous medical school work.)
