Outside Rotations/Electives

 
Third year residents typically choose to attend the four-week course at the
American Institute of Radiologic Pathology (AIRP) in Washington, D.C. (This course replaces the AFIP course last offered in 2010.) 

Experience in Pediatric Radiology is supplemented by spending one month in the junior year and one month in the senior year at the
Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital of New York-Presbyterian, under the supervision of Carrie Ruzal-Shapiro, M.D. The medical campus at 168th street can be reached by subway (only 3 stops on the A train from Roosevelt).

Cardiac Imaging is supplemented with a one-month rotation in the third year at
Beth Israel Medical Center, under the supervision of Alan Legasto, M.D.

Residents can use elective time to work with Dr. Alejandro Berenstein's internationally known neurointerventional radiology team at the Roosevelt site.

Some residents have arranged elective time to work on research projects.
