As one of the oldest medical schools in the country, the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine (COM) has a reputation for training best-in-class health care professionals and developing cutting-edge procedures and research that improves the health and clinical care of patients. In partnership with the UC Health academic health care system and Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, College of Medicine's faculty are transforming the world of medicine every day. The Department of Radiology is a top-tier department with world-renowned faculty and staff.

A full-time academic abdominal radiology faculty position is available in the Department of Radiology at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine.

The University of Cincinnati Department of Radiology has 32 residents in diagnostic radiology, and 1 resident/year in the integrated Diagnostic Radiology/Interventional Radiology (DR/IR) residency. The section of abdominal imaging has 1-2 fellows each year.

Faculty members provide onsite clinical service at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center (UCMC) with primarily remote coverage of the other UC Health facilities. UCMC is the only adult Level 1 Trauma center in the greater Cincinnati area. We have an active transplant (liver, living related liver, kidney, pancreas, autologous islet cell, bone marrow, cardiac) program and outstanding multidisciplinary collaboration with multiple subspecialty programs. The UC Health academic health system has an integrated PACS/EMR/voice recognition system across the healthcare system. A fully functional home PACS workstation is provided.

The Department is collaborating with GE HealthCare on the creation of an MRI Research and Development Center of Excellence located on UC's medical campus. This center of excellence is one of only a handful in the world and will focus on patient research and fostering collaboration between academia and industry, as GE Healthcare scientists will also staff the facility.

This faculty position will work onsite with the opportunity for remote shifts, coordinated amongst the members of the abdominal imaging section.

Radiology faculty members will support the University's mission and commitment to excellence in our students, faculty, staff and all our activities.
